This quote relays an important message. It represents my mission, my values, my perspective for my relationship with clients. I see us on a journey together as equals. I may have background and knowledge in terms of how our brain and psyche interact, but you are ultimately the expert of your own life.
You are your own individual with your own experiences that create your unique perceptions and responses to situations and events. I see my role as a facilitator to your efforts for clarity within the confusion, for relief within the pain, and for empowerment within disempowerment. We have limited control over others and external events, but we have the ability to control our internal experiences and responses.

I am a Registered Psychologist with the College of Psychologists of British Columbia and a member of the Canadian Psychological Association. I completed my doctoral degree through the University of Alberta's Counselling Psychology Program. Growing up in West Kelowna established my innermost feeling of home, so it is with gratitude that I am now back in the area and offer services to a community so near and dear to my heart.
I will disinfect touch-points at the beginning of my shift, after each in-person appointment, and again at the end of my shift. I utilize a "wipe twice" method as per disinfection recommendations. For disinfection and sanitization, I use Simple Green d PRO 3 PLUS. Following the manufacture's instructions, all touch-point surfaces will be saturated in the cleaning solution and soaked for the required 10-minute disinfection period.
As a Ph. D.-level psychologist, I have had exposure to many different therapeutic modalities and approaches. I love that all of these experiences and teachings offer insight into the human condition. I tend to view the human condition from the bigger picture adopting a holistic perspective of the various factors that influence our psyche.
What is EMDR? EMDR is one of the weirdest forms of therapy that there is out there. It incorporates eye movements in our therapeutic processing. Now how in the world can eye movements help us to process what is going on in our psyche and make us feel better? Well, the brain is very mysterious and we will continue to learn about its magnificent workings indefinitely.
I have an awesome online scheduling and file maintenance system that is very user-friendly. I like this system because of its ease of use and because it allows you to be in charge of your scheduling and therapy needs.
