EMDR
​
Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) therapy is an integrative psychotherapy approach that has been extensively researched and proven effective for the treatment of trauma. EMDR is a set of standardized protocols that incorporates elements from many different treatment approaches.
​
EMDR enables people to heal from the symptoms and emotional stress that are the result of disturbing life experiences. EMDR therapy shows that the mind can heal from psychological trauma just as the body can recover from physical trauma.
​
I have been treating a host of First Responders using EMDR therapy and it has proven to be very effective.

Anxiety, Depression and Stress

I have been treating clients with Anxiety, Depression and Stress for 22 years incorporating different therapies that are individually effective. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, Schema Focused Therapy and Cognitive Processing as we'll as therapies that focus on emotions, acceptance and commitment are examples of the eclectic approach that I use.

Relationship/Couples Counselling ​
​
Relationship counselling or Couples Counselling is the process of counselling the parties of a human relationship in an effort to recognize or better manage troublesome difference and repeating patterns of stress on the relationship.
Solution Focused Therapy for situational events may be addressed in 3-5 sessions. Longer term counselling may be necessary to address more deep rooted issues and concerns.
