Not accepting new clients
I take an eclectic approach in my work with clients drawing upon various therapeutic approaches, such as cognitive behaviour therapy (CBT), dialectical behavioural therapy (DBT), solution-focused therapy, positive psychology, and mindfulness.
Caseload is currently full, therefore not accepting new clients! My primary goal is to establish a safe, secure, and non-judgmental environment for clients to share their story. I truly believe that everyone is doing the best they can, in each moment of life, given the environment they grew up in and the tools they have learned along the way.

I take a holistic approach to helping you achieve your goals. Combining psychotherapy theories with co-active coaching principles I conceptualize a plan that is unique to you. Together we will help you better understand your feelings and uncover sources of conflict in your life. You will discover more about yourself, define your aspirations and values and most importantly, build skills for dealing with obstacles in the future. Positive Psychology, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, Person-Centred Therapy and Mindfulness Based Therapy are just some of the few theories I enjoy utilizing in my sessions.

EMDR is a therapy that has you focus on a trigger or trauma while simultaneously experiencing bilateral stimulation (eye movement, tapping or tones), leading to a reduction in the vividness and emotion associated with the incident. Thoughts, behaviours, feelings, traumas or environmental triggers may be maintaining your stress, grief, anxiety, depression, addiction, or other issues. EMDR and other methods can improve your physical, emotional and psychological health and wellness to increase your sense of well‐being, alleviate feelings of stress, reframe negative thoughts, or work through any recent crises or past traumas.

Positive Psychology Counsellors

How does positive psychology therapy work?

Positive psychology therapy derives from the work of Martin Seligman of the University of Pennsylvania. He and others developed the field of positive psychology building on humanistic theory. Positive psychology therapy is similar to acceptance and commitment therapy, and it essentially quiets emotional distress through positivity, contentment, and well-being. This therapy does not reduce the individual to symptoms and conditions.

When do I know if I need treatment using positive psychology?

If an individual is overwhelmed by emotional distress and general negativity, they may feel trapped. A positive psychology therapist can help them view their emotions and behaviours differently, and approach life with a better understanding of their positive strengths. This therapy can provide an individual with the coping skills needed for a healthier and more constructive life.

What should I expect from positive psychology therapy?

The patient may be asked to explore their signature strengths. The therapist will also ask the individual to talk about their goals, which should be specific, measurable, achievable, realistic, and timely. Discussing negative experiences and symptoms is important, but so is the exploration of positive experiences. The objective is to identify and lessen negative thoughts and behaviours and move toward optimal health and productivity. The individual will see life in a more positive and fulfilling way. This therapy is proactive and may use forgiveness, gratitude, hope, and compassion to help reframe negativity.

Is positive psychology effective in therapy?

Positive psychology therapy is evidence-based and effective. One study found that people with eating disorders benefit from this type of intervention. This therapy encourages the person to reframe their distressed thoughts and move into healthier patterns of functioning. This therapy also aims to move an individual toward what works well in their life. Positive psychology therapy can elicit lifelong change, with higher levels of satisfaction, less stress, as well as positive emotional and behavioural habits.
