– Attachment-Based
– Cognitive Behavioural (CBT)
– EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization Reprocessing)
– Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT) for Individuals and Couples Therapy
– Existential
– Gottman Method (for Couples Therapy)

My goal is to come alongside individuals, couples and families to create the conditions for healing, growth and resilience.  I use an integrative approach that is strength-based and person-centered.  I welcome you to incorporate any spiritual or existential concerns into the therapeutic process.

It is my belief that any situation is best addressed in a spirit of empathetic, non-judgmental collaboration.
