Counselling Services<\/h2>\r\n
\r\n
\r\n

I see therapy as a safe place for my clients to heal, learn, and grow. I strive to be a caring and engaging professional, who helps others feel comfortable and supported. I am honoured to help people walk through challenging experiences and live their lives meaningfully.<\/p>\r\n

I am a humanistic therapist at the core. My approach is grounded in existential and Acceptance and Commitment (ACT) therapies. Depending on my clients\u2019 needs, I also use Cognitive Processing Therapy (CPT), Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (TF-CBT), Complicated Grief Disorder Therapy (CGDT), and Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT), as well as mindfulness and self-compassion approaches. My practice is informed by research in psychology, education, and neuroscience to offer my clients everyday tools for balance and health.<\/p>\r\n

Assessment Services<\/h2>\r\n

I provide comprehensive differential diagnosis and psychoeducational assessments for children, adolescents, and adults. My\u00a0 assessment practice includes the following purposes: contribute to clarity about personal strengths and beneficial supports, treatment planning, as well as learning and workplace accommodations. Some of the assessment areas include ADHD, learning difficulties, giftedness, Autism, stress and trauma, anxiety, depression, sleep, as well as behavioural difficulties in chidlren and adolescents.<\/p>\r\n

Professional Background<\/h2>\r\n

I have been a registered psychologist with the Saskatchewan College of Psychologists since 2013. My practice has included the areas of clinical, counselling, and school psychology with adults, adolescents, and children.\u00a0<\/p>\r\n

I am dedicated to developing qualified, evidence-based services and support systems for people in Saskatchewan. I am also deeply committed to enhancing the training of mental health professionals in our province and creating capacity for services in various areas of need. I provide supervision to provisionally-registered psychologists, as well as professional consultations to counsellors and psychologists, both within the clinic and in the community.<\/p>\r\n

My professional path as a psychologist started in residential and community-based services, working as a part of counselling and assessment teams with access to multidisciplinary consultation resources.\u00a0I began working in private practice, establishing Horizon in 2017. I continue to serve as a co-owner and clinical director of our clinic.<\/p>\r\n

Prior to becoming a registered psychologist, between 2007 and 2013, my work experience included several mental health roles in community mental health services, residential treatment, university, and high-school settings. These roles included counselling, treatment planning, risk assessment and management, development and facilitation of psychoeducational programming, as well as clinical leadership and education. I continue to use the skills gained in these settings in my professional practice and deeply value the professional relationships established over the years.<\/p>\r\n<\/div>\r\n<\/div>\r\n
