As a Registered Psychotherapist I guide clients through a discovery process providing a thorough connection between the psychological underpinnings of emotion and behaviour. Raising awareness of these underlying trends becomes the bedrock of recovery, enabling them to work through the often devastating impact that these repeated negative patterns are having in their lives.

Psychotherapy is an approach to treating mental health issues by talking with a psychotherapist or another mental health provider. It is also known as talk therapy, counseling, psychosocial therapy, or therapy. In psychotherapy, we engage in a "conversation" exploring your emotions and how they impact your ability to function. We also identify how emotions, feelings, thoughts, and behaviors are connected and how to use them to develop better coping skills to manage your life and regain control over your life. Psychotherapy can help you feel more accomplished and well-rounded.

Psychotherapy is a talk-based therapy in which folks can explore their concerns related to life challenges, stressors, mental health and well-being in a non-judgemental space. I believe that “individual” concerns go beyond the individual and are deeply connected to the way we interact with the world and others. As such, my approach to psychotherapy draws on systemic therapies that focus on broader sociocultural influences, intersections of identity and relational patterns. I value collaboration, authenticity and anti-oppressive practice in the therapeutic space. Contact me for a free consultation to determine if we would be a good fit.

I believe one of the most important contributing factors to successful psychotherapy is your relationship with your therapist. Therefore my approach is some what different than most. I do not hesitate to interject, to ask questions, or to add my perspective to the subject. I feel therapy is very much a collaborative effort and that together we think, ponder, question and examine what is happening. It is not all left up to you to 'figure things out'., I will always give you my professional opinion and together we will question and discuss my ideas and theories. Our ultimate goal is for you to overcome the challenges life has thrown at you and to grow stronger and more confident as well

As a Christian CBT-therapist, I'll help you identify and challenge negative thought patterns through Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT). Together, we'll explore how your thoughts, feelings, and actions intersect, and work to replace harmful beliefs with Biblical truths, promoting a more balanced and healthy mindset. By examining your thought patterns and reframing them in a Biblical context, you'll develop a more optimistic outlook and improved mental well-being.
