How I can help
Individual Therapy
Are you looking for a mature therapist with life experience who understands and has compassion for your experience? I can help you bring clarity to your experience and guide you through what it takes to reduce the anxiety, depression, grief, or anger you are feeling. With a treatment plan tailored to your needs, we will explore your concerns, develop useful life skills and pave a way to overcoming the hold your symptoms have on you.
EMDR Therapy
Trauma is our neurological response to experiences that are overwhelming. Eye Movement Desensitization Reprocessing (EMDR) is the gold standard for trauma treatment and it can help you find freedom from the depression, anxiety, panic attacks, anger, upsetting dreams and chronic pain that plagues you. Let’s talk about how EMDR can help you.
Navigating Life Changes
Life may be presenting you some new challenges that have you stressed and anxious. Do you feel ill equipped or a bit scared by what is ahead? A change in your health, in your role at work or at home can be unsettling. I can help you sort this out and navigate the change successfully.
Pre-marriage Counselling
Are you planning for your big day? Make sure to do more than book the venue and order the food and flowers. Prepare to have a successful and happy marriage with Gottman inspired pre-marriage counselling. It will be a worthwhile investment and could be fun too.

A Little About Me
I am a Registered Provisional Psychologist with the College of Alberta Psychologists. I hold a Masters Degree in Counselling and a Masters Degree in Theology. I have advanced training in EMDR and am a Certified EMDR Therapist. I have Level II training and years of experience in Gottman Method Couples Therapy.
My world includes a husband, two grown boys, a bunch of family and friends and a lovable dog. I spent years as a caregiver to an aging mother and am an advocate of social justice. My happy place is in nature. It’s where I find God and restore my soul.
I have a passion to help people live their best life at each stage of life whether they are preparing for marriage, starting a family, in the midst of building a career, facing retirement or caring for an elderly parent. The challenges of each stage are real and they tend to bring our internal struggles to the surface.
Therapeutic Approach
My primary therapy is Eye Movement Desensitization Reprocessing Therapy (EMDR). I have advanced training and am a Certified EMDR Therapist with the EMDR International Association (EMDRIA). I find that most people who are struggling with life have a history of some form of trauma. EMDR is the most effective therapy I have found to help people. Most clients see results quickly and the results are permanent.
EMDR works best when supported with other important approaches. I draw from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Emotion Focused Therapy (EFT), Internal Family Systems (IFS), mindfulness and somatic work among others.
Spirituality and faith can be meaningful additions to therapy and I am happy to incorporate them at your request. I am a Christian and a humble student of many faiths.
