"I am collaborative, empathetic, understanding, and hopeful in my work with clients. I am interested in learning about new people and clients often comment that this shows. I am an eclectic in my practice, which means that I have training in many different forms of psychotherapy, such as Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), ACT, and play therapy for children. The work we do together will focus on what is important for you to achieve. This also means that our work together will be unique to you." |

"There is no one 'Cognitive Behavioural Therapy' rather there is one unifying science of the mind, body, and heart represented in a class of therapies called 'CBT' that at their core lessen suffering and encourage living."
