We promise to be there for you for every step of your journey. Our goal is to help you grow from struggles, heal from pain, and move forward to where you want to be in your life. Our approach to psychotherapy is consistent with our core values. Our goal is to create radical, positive, lasting change, and so we apply and blend counselling and therapeutic approaches like Cognitive Behaviour Therapy, Solution Focused Therapy, Reality Therapy, and Rational Emotive Behaviour Therapy.

We are action-oriented and focus primarily on the present and the future. We specialize in getting to the heart of the matter, problem solving, and strategizing with you so you can see results quickly. The theme of our office space is warmth and comfort. We want folks to feel safe and at ease in our space. We also LOVE to play; in addition to more "traditional" counselling approaches, children of all ages have the option to enjoy play, art, or music therapy tools in treatment. If you'd like a "test drive" to see if our therapeutic approach is right for you, we offer a complimentary 30-minute consultation.

I over 25 years experience in mental health counselling, psychiatric rehabilitation, traumatic brain injury, and employment counselling, but my areas of specialization are anger and stress solutions, bullying, and MVA recovery. If you have experienced bullying as a student or an adult worker, are struggling with “negative” emotions like anger and stress/anxiety, or are trying to come to terms with physical, social, emotional, and cognitive changes after a motor vehicle accident, our practice is here to support you through your healing process.

A counselling student, but also an active law enforcement officer with 13 years of experience. My work as a first responder has instilled in me the value of positive mental health, resilience, self-care, work-life balance and investment in supportive relationships. I have a special interest in occupational stress injury (OSI) and would welcome the opportunity to walk alongside you as you work towards your goals to survive and thrive post-injury and throughout your career.

I also have experience holding space for those seeking to reconcile grief and loss. I have gained valuable experience at a local hospice where the primary mission is to provide compassionate care for those at end-of-life and the families supporting them.

Martin Seligman says this about treatment: It is not just about fixing what is wrong; it is building what is right. I believe that we all have the instincts and competencies to live into a preferred future that is bright, meaningful and connected.
