Provider information

Description

I have years of experience in psychology. I work predominantly with trauma, grief, anxiety, depression, low mood, anger, procrastination, self-worth, and low self-esteem, among other concerns. I work collaboratively with clients to provide a safe, welcoming, and nonjudgmental therapeutic environment.

I have a client-centred approach, and I utilize knowledge of psychodynamics, relational psychology, EMDR, CBT, and IFS which are research-based psychotherapy interventions proven to help clients feel better and overcome issues; these options are tailored reflective of each client's unique needs.
