Let's Connect (403) 554-6305
I am passionate about working with teens, young adults, adults, and families, and helping them transform into confident and successful people with effective life-management skills. I specialize with clients needing individual, and/or family support with: attachment, anxiety, assertiveness, body image, conflict resolution, cross-cultural parenting, depression, grief, parent coaching, parent/teen conflict, performance enhancement (school, work, social), pet loss, relationship issues, self-esteem, self harm, sexuality - including all sexual orientations & gender identities, stress management, and trauma. Queer/Trans & HAES affirming.
My counseling work is holistic and creative - integrating mind, body, emotions, and the environment. I combine the latest research in brain development and attachment theory, and use therapeutic tools like EMDR, Mindfulness based Cognitive Therapy, Family therapy and Parent Coaching, to provide clients with comprehensive and effective care.
Coping skills often accidentally become rigid patterns that get in the way of healthy relationships & response flexibility. We will work together to resolve the issues that are causing you distress. Then rather than just discussing change, you can practice new behaviours and beliefs immediately in the session - effectively rewiring your brain!
