As strange as it sounds, therapy is like hiking through a muddy swamp toward a beautiful mountain. In this metaphor, the mountain represents a meaningful and fulfilling life and the swamp represents the difficulties that stand between you and that life. My approach involves building warm, non-judgmental, and collaborative working relationships, learning what living a meaningful and fulfilling life means to each of my clients, and sharing evidence-based strategies as we walk together through the swamp.
I completed my masters and doctorate degrees in clinical psychology at Queen’s University. More recently, I completed my residency in the Department of Clinical Health Psychology at the University of Manitoba, where I received training in the assessment and treatment of anxiety, depression, insomnia, chronic pain, and women’s health concerns. My primary therapeutic modalities are Cognitive-Behavioural Therapy (CBT) and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT). Although I am a generalist, I have a strong passion for working with women experiencing mood and anxiety difficulties during different reproductive life stages (e.g., pregnancy, postpartum) as well as grief secondary to stillbirth or neonatal loss.
