About Me
I'm a Registered Psychologist in Calgary specializing in EMDR therapy for anxiety, depression, trauma, and relationship difficulties. So much of what brings people in - the racing heart during ordinary conversations, going numb when emotions rise, bracing against a partner who is actually safe - are survival responses the nervous system learned and hasn't yet let go of. Using EMDR, I help the brain reprocess those old experiences so present-day life stops triggering yesterday's defenses. Alongside EMDR, I draw on Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT) and the Gottman Method to help people stay present in difficult conversations and reconnect with the people they love. We work at your pace, with room for all of it - the grief, the anger, and the hope.
