Welcome!
I am a Registered Psychologist with a private counselling practice in Alberta. For over 30 years, I have had the privilege of helping many individuals, couples and families with a variety of concerns and difficulties. I strive to maintain a quiet and safe, comfortable and confidential appointment setting.
Most of us desire to live a life feeling confident, courageous and competent as we meet new challenges or handle the inevitable stressors that life seems to be made of. We yearn to feel fulfilled and purposeful, exhilarated and passionate as we move through our experience of living. We seek the enjoyment, encouragement, comfort, safety and stability of loving relationships. We would treasure the peace and sanctity of fully loving ourselves and others.
The reality is that we often struggle with all of this. We may feel overwhelmed by stress, unable to cope or less resilient to stress than we used to be. We may have low self-esteem, not trust or believe in ourselves or others, be fearful, angry, withdrawn, depressed, or hopeless. We may lack a sense of wellness physically, emotionally, psychologically or spiritually. Our relationships might be lost, disconnected, estranged, conflictual or abusive.
Family and friends can sometimes help us move through the tough times in our lives, but when we are experiencing difficulties that are not resolving and/or we have symptoms that are greatly impeding our ability to function or derive satisfaction or joy in our lives we know we may need more help than family or friends alone can offer. Psychologists are professionals who are trained to help. An appointment with a Psychologist can be the first step in restoring, rebuilding and renewing our lives.
