NEW: Now offering EMDR therapy for trauma processing! What is EMDR?

One way to address trauma is by using a specific eye movement technique known as EMDR. The aim of EMDR is to facilitate healing from distressing life experiences. Although EMDR is a relatively new therapy method, it has been subject to numerous clinical trials since its inception in 1989, which have demonstrated its effectiveness in helping individuals overcome trauma more quickly than other techniques.

As a Canadian Certified Counsellor and Psychotherapist, I use evidence-based practices to create personalized treatment plans for my clients that align with their concerns and goals. I believe in building a strong therapeutic rapport with my clients and assisting them in discovering their strengths. My aim is to create a safe, comfortable, and supportive environment for my clients as they navigate their journey toward recovery.

I remain up-to-date with current mental health trends and modalities to ensure that I provide the best possible treatment plan for various mental health concerns. I have experience working with a wide range of concerns, such as depression, anxiety, trauma, addiction, relationships, families, grief/loss, self-esteem, self-confidence, anger management, stress, abuse, phobias, behavioural issues, and addiction.

I work from a trauma-informed lens and focus on the biopsychosocial model, which considers biology, psychology, and environmental factors that contribute to mental health concerns. I use various counseling modalities, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavioral Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Narrative Therapy, Psychoanalytical Therapy, Humanistic Approaches, Strength-Based Approaches, Positive Psychology, Art Therapy, Play Therapy, and Brief Solution-Focused Therapy to promote healing and growth. My expertise in Attachment Theory helps me assist clients with behavioural issues and concerns. I work with individuals, couples, families, and youth, and offer both virtual and in-person appointments.
