My integrated approach to therapy is both client-centred and directive. Drawing on a wide range of therapeutic tools, I will work collaboratively with you to select an approach to your concerns that is best suited to you. My goal is to help you identify your unique strengths and the resources available to you in order to build a more satisfying life for yourself. Together we will work intitially to build a healthy and respectful therapeutic relationship. From here we will select the tools appropriate to your situation. I will offer suggestions, but you are in the driver's seat.

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.

As a psychologist, I take a warm, collaborative, and holistic approach. I draw from evidence-based therapies like CBT, ACT, and mindfulness to support emotional well-being, build practical life skills, and strengthen self-compassion. My goal is to help you navigate challenges, improve relationships, and develop a deeper understanding of yourself. I offer a safe, non-judgmental space where you can feel supported, explore your values, and create meaningful, lasting change.

As a registered psychologist I've found that the most effective way to initiate and foster the therapeutic alliance and change process is to establish with a client right from the outset that their therapeutic “hero’s journey” is going to be one that relies on the rapport we establish/sustain (BOND), the relationship we build/maintain (GOALS) and the resources we engage/employ (METHODS). Such a co-creative therapeutic process will take time and practice; it will be ill-defined and uncertain; and, at times, it may feel vulnerable, but by courageously and whole-heartedly engaging in the work of counselling together the changes you seek will eventually become you.

As a Registered Provisional Psychologist, I provide evidence-based, client-centered psychological care tailored to each individual’s needs. My approach integrates ACT, CBT, Solution-Focused Therapy, Internal Family Systems, and Gottman-informed couples work to address both immediate concerns and underlying patterns. I focus on helping clients develop practical skills, emotional insight, and meaningful behavioural change while fostering self-understanding and resilience. Clients can expect a structured yet compassionate process that supports improved mental health, stronger relationships, and greater overall functioning and well-being.

All too often, life throws us a curve-ball. In an instant, we go from having it all together to standing in the shambles of our lives wondering how it all ever fit together in first place. On the one hand, we see our principles, our faith and our beliefs, and, on the other, we see our reality -- and our broken hearts. In times like these, it's not enough to just gain more information. What really matters is making it all fit. As a registered psychologist, my training in psychology can help you with those answers and, as a registered Christian counsellor, the training in faith, spirituality and meaning can help you make sense of that information for your life, and then help you to see how you can fit the pieces back together again.

Psychologists know what you're thinking, right? Wrong. Though that's what people often believe, today psychologists are not just analysts but counselors, coaches, teachers, researchers, supports, you name it! Yes, therapy can involve change on a deep level, in the area of personality, but it also can involve solving a problem; in that case it's encouraging to know your therapist has the training and experience to help understand your specific issues and struggles, and how to best help address all your needs. You're the expert on you; I bring my knowledge and experience about people, their problems, and how to change, and together we can improve your life and relationships.

I am currently a Registered Provisional Psychologist, which means I can do everything a Registered Psychologist can do, just under supervision (and that does not mean my supervisor has to be there in your sessions). The bonus of this for you is that I offer services at lower than the going rate, and you get two brains working for you instead of just one. I offer psychological assessment for adults, as well as counselling/psychotherapy for adult individuals and couples.
