Registered Psychotherapist
My Approach
We all sojourn in one place or another, and at times we need help gaining clarity as to how and why we have arrived at this particular junction in our lives.
It is important for my practice to provide an atmosphere where you and I work collaboratively on creating a safe, supportive therapeutic alliance. A process where you work on increasing self-awareness, build resilience, demonstrate self-compassion and learn how to trust yourself.
About me
I am a Registered Psychotherapist with a Specialized Honours Undergraduate degree in Psychology and a Masters degree in Psychology. In addition, I have trained in Emotionally Focused Therapy.
​
Getting Started.
Insurance: If you have extended health benefits, please review the type of services your plan covers before your first visit. Some policies can list Counselling under "Psychotherapy" or "Psychological Services." I can provide both services; I am qualified to practice as a Psychotherapist as well as provide Psychological Services under the supervision of a Registered Clinical Psychologist. Please note that fees will differ for each service.
Payment: Payment is expected at the end of each session. I accept cash and e-transfer as forms of payment. I will provide a receipt upon receiving your payment.
Fees: We will discuss fees at the time of your consultation or first appointment.
Sessions length: The length of each session is for 60 mins; 45 mins are for the session with 15 mins are for the completion of session notes. I offer a free 10 min telephone consultation, to allow you to determine if we are a good fit before meeting for our first session.
Appointment Cancellation Policy: I require 24hrs notification for cancelling or changing an appointment. I will charge a cancellation fee if notification is not received within that time frame. I am aware that sometimes things come up beyond our control and cancellation fees can be waived for extraordinary circumstances. Sessions are by appointment only, to schedule, please contact me by phone or email.
