Bio for Referral Service: As a therapist, I endeavour to be authentic, caring and compassionate with all of my clients. My practice provides clients with Trauma Informed Care and I use the strategies and proven methods of Solution-Focused Therapy, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Mindfulness Based Cognitive Therapy, ACT Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Gabor Mate's Compassionate Inquiry Methods and the “Depth” approach of Existential Psychology. Existential Psychologists believe that while it’s important to identify and try to change the symptoms that come with mental health issues, life and relationship issues, addictions and other psychological dilemmas; we also need to go deeper and delve into how a person defines and understands their life and existence --- exploring their deeply held values and belief systems and even the deeper existential issues of our mortality, freedom, responsibility and what it means to be human.
I am also a neurodivergent therapist who endeavours to provide an inclusive therapy practice which welcomes autistic and ADHD people and other types of neurodiversity.
I live with my partner, a fluffy, large, overly energetic and goofy rescue dog and a very pampered rescue cat. I have two adult children and I’ve lived happily in Calgary for almost 30 years. I enjoy the outdoors — snowshoeing, cycling, hiking and travelling. I also love reading and watching British television series. Please call or send me a message and we can explore if our working together is a good fit.
