In collaboration with clients I individualize their treatment for their presenting life challenges with the goal of improving their functioning and life satisfaction. I have an extensive background in ACT (Acceptance and Commitment Therapy) and CBT (Cognitive Behavioural Therapy), and for the past several years have been expanding and integrating mindfulness and acceptance into my clinical practice, which I do in a developmentally and culturally sensitive manner. With fun and engaging therapeutic techniques, I teach clients how to be in the present moment and how to have their difficult emotions have less of an impact on them. I also collaborate with other professionals, schools, and community agencies to provide comprehensive treatment plans.

I obtained my Master of Science degree in Clinical Psychology in 2001 from Acadia University in Wolfville, Nova Scotia. Since then, I have been working with children, youth, adults, families and couples treating a variety of mental health difficulties using evidence-based therapy approaches, including, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), and Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT).

I have been working in the private practice sector since April 2010, and started my own practice in December 2020. Prior to this I worked for nine years with the IWK Health Centre in Community Mental Health with a multidisciplinary team doing psychological assessments and implementing treatment plans for children and youth. I provided group therapy for anxiety and depression and ran parenting groups for ADHD and disruptive behaviour disorders.

I continue to support parents in their management of a wide range of presenting childhood challenges related to ADHD, disruptive behaviour disorders, and other pediatric and/or psychiatric disorders.
