“Hello! I am happy to be joining the supportive multi-disciplinary practice at Wolseley Wellness.
I am a Psychologist with over 10 years of experience. During that time, it has been my privilege to join people on their individual journeys. I see therapy as a collaborative opportunity to dedicate time together to helping you achieve a life that is consistent with your values. Using a client-centered approach where each person is seen as the expert in themselves, I will work with you to help develop a collection of coping strategies to deal more effectively with difficult thoughts and feelings, and to look at ways you can address barriers to your valued life.
I primarily use an approach called Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT). ACT is a type of behaviourally and mindfulness-based psychotherapy that looks at ways to reduce suffering and to empower each person to connect to a life they value. When indicated, I also include other common therapy approaches such as behavioural strategies, effective goal-setting, and Cognitive-Behaviour Therapy (CBT).
At Wolseley Wellness, I currently work with people aged 18-65 who are looking for individual therapy. While ACT can be used across a wide range of concerns, I have specific expertise in working with anxiety (including social anxiety, obsessive-compulsive disorder, general anxiety disorder, or panic); depression; grief; life changes and stressors; or work stress. I also have specific training and experience working with individuals who have chronic pain or chronic health conditions, and people who identify as being on the Autism Spectrum. Please note that I only offer individual therapy; I do not provide formal assessment for diagnostic or other purposes.
I am registered as a Psychologist with the Psychological Association of Manitoba, and a member of the Manitoba Psychological Society and the Association of Contextual Behaviour Science."
