Therapy

Online counselling and psychotherapy is a great option during the pandemic and is ideal for those living in remote areas or who wish to remain in the comfort of their own home. My counselling and psychotherapy services include a comprehensive psychosocial assessment and a personalized treatment approach and are held using a PHIPA compliant Telehealth platform (online video conferencing).

A complete course of counselling or psychotherapy can take anywhere from 6 to 20 sessions. Some individuals can be helped fairly quickly and others benefit from more sessions and continued coaching. For individuals limited by benefits, a plan can be discussed during the first session. Sessions usually occur weekly or biweekly, however, the client ultimately decides what is right for them and their schedule. I utilize several evidence-based and trauma-informed approaches to therapy, including Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Rational Emotive Behaviour Therapy (REBT), and Dialectical/Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (DBT/CBT) to help clients work through the following challenges:

• Depression & Major Depressive Disorder

• Anxiety & Generalized Anxiety Disorder

• Shyness & Social Anxiety Disorder

• Trauma & Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder

• Addictions & Substance Use Disorder

• Codependency & Self-Esteem Issues

• Borderline & Narcissistic Personalities

• Stress & Anger Management Challenges

• Relationship Issues

• Suicidal Ideation

I am passionate about working with adults of all ages with various mental health concerns and barriers. I also bring a specialty in supporting those on the LGBTQ+ spectrum navigate their experiences and challenges.
