Hello,
I began my practice as a psychologist bringing several years of experience from working as a Philosophical Counsellor, where I assisted clients with concerns related to self-exploration, personal growth, and development.
Since starting as a psychologist, I have had opportunity to work with individuals, couples, and families in a general counselling context. This includes attending to concerns regarding depression, anxiety, trauma, and life transitions brought about through changes in the work and/or home situation. Additionally, services have been provided toward helping clients attend to matters from the past impacting the present and for which resolution has now become relevant.
There has also been experience working with the Alberta Court system providing Brief Conflict Intervention and Practice Notes 7 for high conflict families on concerns related to divorce/separation. As well, work has been done in providing psychological assessment services to individuals and families on a range of issues from immigration matters, issues concerning parenting capacity, as well as clinical ecological assessments for children/youth.
In terms of my orientation, I work collaboratively with Clients through questioning and discussion, as well as incorporating the body/mind interplay. This can involve talk therapy or body focused experiential processes. My intention is placed upon assisting Clients toward self-empowerment within their lives and circumstances.
I am available for days, evening, and weekend sessions and would welcome the opportunity to discuss whether my orientation would be of value to assist with your particular need.
