Practice information:
Hello. I am a registered psychologist (#2247) with a Ph.D. in Counselling Psychology from the University of British Columbia. I help adults who wish to make changes in their personal lives and in their relationships. Particular areas of interest include: living with the experience of mental illness in the family, caregiver stress, life transitions, relationship concerns, grief and loss, and the struggle with existential questions of life.
I work with adults at every life stage. As a clinical instructor and supervisor in the Counselling Psychology Program at the University of British Columbia, I have gained an appreciation of the many challenges students face throughout their academic lives. I also have a heart for the challenges faced by mature adults and seniors in today’s world.
I have completed post-graduate training in a wide range of evidence-based approaches and continue to incorporate professional trainings and workshops into my counselling. My therapeutic approach is integrative, informed by Experiential Therapies, Emotion Focused Therapy (individuals and couples), Existential Therapy, Attachment Theory, and Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT). I strive to provide a compassionate, nonjudgmental, safe space in which to support and work collaboratively with clients to address their concerns.
