My starting point in any work I do with clients is to build a strong connection between us. This done through listening, respect, creating safety, and really being present with the client when we are together. I believe this is vital to any therapy I do. I provide an atmosphere that the client can feel heard and seen for who they are. Every session may look different because it is based on the clients needs, situation, and goals for therapy.

In all of the work that I do with clients, there are some primary goals: Promote understanding and eliminate ambiguity. It is only through understanding that we can create comprehensive and meaningful change. I also focus quite heavily on exploring tools and treatment methods with my clients so that they can find their desired change. I incorporate elements of cognitive and behavioural interventions along with a myriad of psychological principles into my psychotherapeutic work.

My approach to psychotherapy centers on providing a compassionate, collaborative space where clients feel safe to explore and process their unique experiences. I understand that life’s challenges can be overwhelming, and seeking support is a powerful, courageous step toward growth and healing. With a focus on empathy, nonjudgment, and respect, I work alongside clients to identify underlying patterns and build healthy coping mechanisms that foster resilience. Choosing to work with a skilled, understanding therapist can be essential in navigating difficult times, as it offers dedicated guidance to help clients uncover their strengths, create meaningful change, and cultivate a more balanced and

Psychotherapy has been with humankind since our origins. However, about a century ago, psychologists tried to systematize and formalize psychotherapeutic interventions and, depending on their worldview and perspectives on human nature, they created various approaches that currently exceed 400, which can be confusing and misleading. A successful psychotherapy, regardless of the lenses and title, should acknowledge that every person has a unique mind and, as a result, a unique mental world. The therapist’s job is to help the client explore this world in a supportive environment. Schedule a free 15-minute consultation to see if we are a good fit.

My approach to psychotherapy extends beyond traditional talk therapy. While dialogue is part of our work, much of the process involves tuning into what your body and nervous system are communicating beneath the words. Using evidence-based, experiential methods informed by neuroscience, polyvagal theory, and somatics, we explore how emotion, memory, and physiology interact. This process helps create safety and awareness in the body, fosters emotional regulation, and supports lasting change in how you think, feel, and behave. Through this therapeutic relationship, you can experience transformation at both the emotional and behavioural levels.

Psychotherapy will help you understand yourself and your behaviour. By talking to a trained therapist you will gain insight into yourself and awareness of why you do what you do, and ways to change it. Psychotherapy looks at what you think, believe, and feel, and how that affects the way you live your life. By changing how you think, you can change how you believe, and change how you feel.

Our approach to our clients is to use an integrated trauma informed approach, with an individualized treatment plan to meet your needs.

Rooted in tried and tested treatment modalities, fueled by cutting edge research and trainings, AG & Associates is here to help our community, when in need.

I use psychotherapy for both long term and short term benefit. During the first session we will set short term achievable goals and over the course of therapy I will encourage you to widen your scope and envision bigger dreams. We will look at past trauma/issues that have created psychological blocks and work on resolving them in order to create healthy change and transformation.

Psychotherapy is a space where you don’t have to carry everything alone. Working with me means having a compassionate and collaborative environment where we focus on understanding—not judging—your thoughts, emotions, and patterns. Clients often share that therapy with me feels grounding, transparent, and deeply human. I combine evidence-based approaches with genuine empathy and curiosity, tailoring each session to your needs and pace. You can expect a mix of exploration, practical strategies, and emotional support designed to help you move toward balance, connection, and self-trust.

My approach to psychotherapy includes cognitive behavior therapy (CBT), dialectical behavior therapy (DBT), and solution-focused therapy. I find this mixture is extremely effective at addressing maladaptive cognitions, emotion dysregulation, and interpersonal problems. My approach is non-judgmental, supportive, flexible, warm, and collaborative. I also use clinical measures that are suited for each individual client to track treatment process and to ensure high quality of care.
