Located in Lethbridge, AB, I am a psychologist, registered with the College of Alberta Psychologists, providing 1-hour in-person and virtual counselling services to residents of Lethbridge and throughout Alberta.
My approach to counselling focuses on building a strong connection together and developing trust. Trust in therapy is crucial, and if you make the decision to work with me, I want you to feel comfortable and have trust in me as you share your personal story.
I incorporate a variety of therapeutic techniques in my counselling to help you reach your desired goal including Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), Narrative Therapy, Solution Focused Therapy, and Person-Centered Therapy.
