Are you looking for a caring and experienced therapist in Edmonton? 

My therapeutic style is rooted in empathy, compassion, and trauma-informed, evidence-based practice. I use various techniques such as CBT (cognitive-behavioural therapy), EMDR (eye movement desensitization and reprocessing), ACT (acceptance and commitment therapy), mindfulness, and solution-focused therapy.


I welcome individuals aged 25+ of all genders, sexual orientations, and ethnicities who are looking for help with:

  • chronic stress and challenging life situations
  • high anxiety, persistent worry, panic attacks, and phobias
  • insomnia (trouble falling or staying asleep)
  • difficult or toxic relationships with family members
  • binge-eating or other compulsive self-soothing behaviours
  • depression, including post-partum (as well as other perinatal mood and anxiety disorders)
  • a history of childhood emotional neglect or having a narcissistic parent
  • grief following a loved one's death or being diagnosed with a serious illness
  • breakups, separation, divorce, and blended family adjustment
  • mid-life and "sandwich generation" issues 
  • life stage transitions such as new parenthood, "empty nest" or retirement
  • other concerns - please feel free to contact me with any questions!


Please note that at this time, I do not provide: treatment for restrictive eating disorders or severe traumatic events (PTSD); couples' or family counselling; formal psychological assessments (such as fitness-to-work or ADHD testing); or services for workplace psychological injuries (Workers' Compensation Board) or cases with legal/court involvement.


Psychologists' practice guidelines recommend avoiding potential dual relationships and conflicts of interest with clients. Because of my family's connection with Strathcona high school, I'm not able to see teachers or staff from that school. Similarly, I cannot see the partner/close family member of a current or recent client. I'd be happy to provide referrals to trusted colleagues in any of the above circumstances.


Please note that for video or phone services, as per guidelines from the College of Alberta Psychologists, the client must be physically located in the province of Alberta at the time of the appointment.
