Find A Psychologist in St Albert, AB.

I am a registered psychologist who provides professional counselling services in St. Albert, Alberta. I help individuals and couples in areas such as: marriage and couple issues, communication and conflict resolution, life transitions, anxiety and panic, stress-related concerns, depression, trauma, loss/grief, and anger management.

I’m a bilingual registered psychologist, and I offer sessions in both French and English. I love supporting adults and first responders as they navigate life’s challenges with warmth and understanding. My approach is trauma-informed, meaning I recognize how past experiences can shape how we feel, think, and connect with others today — often in ways we don’t even realize. Together, we’ll create a safe, trusting space to explore what you’ve been through with compassion rather than judgment. I see reactions like shutting down, feeling on edge, or disconnecting, not as flaws, but as ways your system has tried to keep you safe. In our work, you’ll learn gentle ways to calm your body, understand your emotions. The focus isn’t on what’s “wrong” with you, but on what’s happened to you.

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.
