HOW I
WORK
A solid connection + a combination of evidence-based therapeutic approaches.
I prioritize building a strong, trusting therapeutic relationship—one of the most important factors in achieving meaningful, lasting change. From this foundation, I integrate a range of evidence-based approaches, thoughtfully tailored to each client’s unique needs, readiness, and goals. This flexible, collaborative style ensures that therapy feels both supportive and effective, meeting you where you are while helping you move forward.
-
Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT): is a practical, evidence-based approach that helps people understand how their thoughts, feelings, and behaviors are connected—and gives them tools to change unhelpful patterns and improve their mental well-being
Dialectical Behavioural Therapy (DBT): is a skills-based therapy that helps people manage intense emotions, build healthier relationships, and develop coping strategies through mindfulness, distress tolerance, and emotional regulation
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT): helps people relate differently to difficult thoughts and emotions—by accepting what’s out of their control and committing to actions that align with their values
-
EMDR is a therapy that helps your brain process and heal from painful memories so they stop feeling so intense and disruptive in your daily life.
A therapeutic relationship with the
right information, technique & strategy.
Healing is hard work…and it’s designed to done together!
By engaging both the upper brain and lower brain, I guide clients in nervous system regulation, integrating thought and emotion to unlock sustained clarity, resilience, and personal growth
Integrating…
the needs of the body and brain
the interconnectedness of thoughts, beliefs, emotions, & behaviours
aspects of our socialization
the importance of belonging & connection
our past experiences
What to expect:
To be heard, understood, and respected
An acknowledgment that your pain is real and matters
Encouragement
Working together
A Caring environment
Guidance at your pace
Keeping it simple or exploring deeper issues
Learning and growth
People start to heal the moment they feel heard.
