My Approach to Therapy
I believe that creating a safe and empathetic space is essential to the counselling experience. I place focus on a non-judgemental and accepting counselling relationship to allow for trust and growth to occur. Through a personalized and eclectic style of therapy (utilizing modalities such as Internal Family Systems, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, and EMDR), I work with you to help discover, and move toward, the goals and changes you would like to see in your life.
My Qualifications
I am a Registered Psychotherapist (Qualifying) with the College of Registered Psychotherapists of Ontario and a member of the Canadian Counselling and Psychotherapy Association. I hold a Master of Arts in Counselling Psychology (with honours) from Yorkville University, a Post-baccalaureate certificate in Addictions Treatment and Prevention from Georgian College, and a Bachelor of Arts in Sociology from Brock University (both with honours).
I am a Certified Trauma Professional and have received certificates and training in the following areas: Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, Emdria approved Eye Movement Desensitization Reprocessing (EMDR) training, Internal Family Systems, Cognitive Processing Therapy, Exposure and Response Prevention, Grief Counselling, Emotion Focused Therapy, and Sand Tray Therapy.
