I offer psychological assessment for adults, as well as counselling/psychotherapy for adult individuals and couples.

I help clients using cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT), a skill-based approach in which I am certified.

I track progress using clients' reports of their well-being and monitor the quality of my relationship with clients by soliciting written feedback.

Psychology focuses on understanding our emotions, thoughts, and behaviours and making sense of our past, present, and future to understand more about why we are the way we are, but also to help shape growth into the type of life we want to live. Working with a psychologist means you will have the chance to learn more about yourself, understand long-standing patterns of thinking, feeling, or acting, and take charge of your future. I draw from approaches including CBT, ACT, EFT and EMDR to help customize a plan that supports your unique goals. You can expect to leave each session with new insights or new ideas to put into practice to help you feel better and live life more fully outside of therapy sessions.
