Psychotherapy + Crisis Response

Adolescents | Adults

Single-Session | Short-Term | Crisis Response + Suicide | Sexual Assault Crisis | Long-Term

My approach to psychotherapy is integrative. I select interventions based on the individual’s unique needs, experiences, and personality. My approach is also client-centered, prioritizing the client as the expert in their own life, unconditional positive regard, acceptance, empathy, and collaboration.

I am also trained in Dialectical Behavior Therapy, Process-Experiential/Emotion-Focused Therapy, Acceptance & Commitment Therapy, Internal Family Systems, Attachment-Based/Psychodynamic Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, and somatic/body-based therapies. I also incorporate cultural knowledge and healing practices according to the client’s wishes.

I was trained as a generalist, which means that I am qualified to work with a wide variety of diverse mental health concerns. I also have additional specialized training in PTSD and complex trauma, Indigenous and racialized mental health, intergenerational trauma, suicide, addictions, justice involvement, gender-based and sexualized violence, personality disorders, sexuality, and relationships.

  • Client-centred.

    You are the expert on your own life and your community, not me. I'm a resource for guidance and support.

  • Integrative.

    I integrate a variety of psychological interventions and cultural frameworks to provide personalized care.

  • Trauma-and-violence informed.

    I consider the impacts of individual and institutional violence on people and communities.

  • Culturally safe.

    I acknowledge and address cultural differences and power imbalances to ensure clients feel valued and understood.
