Find a Therapist in Wellington, Alberta.

When we work together in psychotherapy, you will have a safe and supportive space to share and explore what is on your mind and heart. I will help you learn tools to manage your emotions, feel more grounded, and improve your overall well-being. If you are open to it, we can also look at the deeper roots of what you are going through to create meaningful, lasting change. My goal is to support you in feeling more balanced, understood, and empowered in your life.

Often times people have expectations with the goal of getting rid of or eliminating symptoms in regards to their mental health. However, you can have far more success when you work toward accepting and managing your symptoms as opposed to trying to get rid of them. In doing so you decrease your negative reactivity and emotional responses and are better able to manage your mental health.

Do you feel stuck and unsure about where to go from here? Is life just not working out the way you hoped or planned? We will work together to figure out what is most important to you, what you want out of life and your relationships, what's been holding you back and what you can do to make healthy changes. I will help you start LIVING and THRIVING - not just existing and surviving.

I approach therapy knowing that it is often very difficult to openly express yourself to someone you don't know, and it's a great investment of your time and finances. My approach is to help you as efficiently and effectively as possible. I want to know what YOU want for you life, and I'll help you move towards that! If you want practical steps, I can offer that. If you just want to process some thoughts and emotions, even deeper questions, I can certainly be there guiding you through that as well!

Psychotherapy leads to in-depth understanding about ourselves. This understanding is prerequisite to engaging intimately with others and having conscious control over our needs are reactions. The therapeutic relationship established is the context where psychological change is possible. Psychotherapy is appropriate for both long-tern and short-term healing.

What Is Accelerated Resolution Therapy? Accelerated Resolution Therapy (ART) is a relatively new form of therapy with roots in existing evidence-based therapies but shown to achieve benefits much more rapidly (usually within 3-5 sessions). ART is a combination of bilateral stimulation, prolonged exposure and visualizations. ART looks at processing negative psychological symptoms within the body and the brain. ART has shown to offer improvements to clients’ symptoms within 1 or 2 sessions. While initially a trauma therapy, ART appears to be beneficial for several psychological concerns. More detailed information on this approach can be found here.

James Hillman once said, "We've had a hundred years of psychotherapy and the world is getting worse." While there are many occasions where the validation and listening endemic to psychotherapy makes sense, there are times where we over assume that "feeling better" and "changing behavior" are the same. Grey Matters International, Inc. goes after the forgotten brain laws to behavior change that therapists miss when processing hours and hours of dialogues with people. Utilizing a cutting edge technology to facilitate the emotional process of change, we can make the therapy process way more effective, faster, and with less money spent.

In psychotherapy a safe, professional, nonjudgemental, and caring environment is established to assist clients in change, healing, and the development of tools to respond to life's challenges and transitions in healthy and constructive way. In psychotherapy, I integrate a variety of approaches to help individuals work through issues such as anxiety, depression, anger, grief, marriage/relationship conflict/communication, and significant life transitions.

Patterns of self-sabotaging behavioural, disorganized thinking and overwhelming emotion make life very difficult. How can we move forward when our bodies seem to betray us and we just need a break from the buzzing anxiety or the numbing of depression? What you may not know is all these symptoms are the imprint of our unfinished business, stuck in the body and just begging to be seen, cared for and accepted. Working with me means looking with curiosity, compassion and an educated-eye at how old wounds of betrayal, abandonment and rejection show up to block living your best life. You are not alone and there is hope.

In my work, I often draw from Jungian psychotherapy and Sandplay Therapy to support deeper healing and self-discovery. Rooted in the belief that the psyche naturally moves toward wholeness, Jungian approaches invite clients to explore the symbols, images, and unconscious patterns that shape their inner world. Through Sandplay—a gentle, nonverbal form of expression using miniature figures and a tray of sand—clients can safely give form to experiences and emotions that may be difficult to articulate. This process helps the unconscious communicate symbolically, allowing for insight, integration, and transformation. Whether with children, teens, or adults, Sandplay offers a contained, sacred spa

Psychotherapy usually means longer more in depth treatment of issues. There is a an understanding that there is value in seeing a therapist on a regular basis as it give time for trust to develop and also allows the client the time to explore more deeply. It is also a recognition that somethings take longer to treat. One can meet weekly or bi-weekly or however frequently is appropriate. The practice of psychotherapy takes more skill and experience and usually means the therapist has had their own psychotherapy.

I work from an Emotionally Focused Therapy lens (EFT). In EFT, we explore what’s happening underneath the surface — the emotions, fears, and needs that often drive how we react or withdraw in moments of distress. By understanding these deeper experiences, you can begin to: recognize emotional patterns, make sense of your reactions, build emotional safety, and develop healthier patterns of communication While traditional talk therapy can be beneficial, it is not without its limitations. Being vulnerable with another human being can be incredibly difficult. Equine-Assisted Psychotherapy is a unique and powerful way to explore personal growth and emotional healing with the help of horses.

Psychotherapy includes a more long-term exploration into one's inner functioning, in order to make lasting change. While doing psychotherapy, I assist my clients to look into their inner life, which often includes looking back at family of origin issues or past relationships to learn how one has become who they are today, and then identifying areas where they would like to see change. We then work to shift these patterns of being to create a more fulfilling, peaceful life, with healthier choices.

Do you find that certain life circumstances are out of your control? Does this bring up strong negative emotions? Sometimes, we react like a child or a teenager, other times, like a mature adult. What is it within us that brings up these varied responses? Why is it that we at times feel stuck and helpless to bring about any changes? Together, in the process of psychotherapy, we can explore these questions and more, within a safe, confidential and non-judgemental space.

Psychotherapy can help when an individual feels life is awfully difficult. Moreover, psychotherapy can also make a straight life even better . Psychotherapy is suggested whenever a person is grappling with problems in life for example relationship issues, anxiety, anger or other mental health concerns, and these issues are creating the individual lots of hurt or upset for longer than a week. There may be exceptions to this common rule, but for the most of the cases, there is no harm in going into psychotherapy even if someone is not entirely confident that it would benefit from the counseling.

It is important that we take a holistic approach to healing in order to be able to truly move forward and feel renewed and empowered. Within a safe and supportive environment, I will support you in a healing process that fits with your life experience and worldview.
