I am happy to offer you a free, 15 minute phone consultation prior to booking an appointment with me to allow you an opportunity to ask any questions you might have of me, explore your hopes and needs for therapy, and begin to assess together whether I might be a good resource for you.
In person sessions are available in my comfortable and newly renovated office.
Sessions are also available via secure video-conferencing and by telephone, for added convenience and flexibility.
EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) is a phased, focused approach to treating trauma and other symptoms by reconnecting you in a careful and safe way to the images, beliefs, emotions and body sensations associated with the trauma, and allowing the natural healing powers of your brain to move you toward resolution and peace. For more information, please see www.emdria.org
Fees begin at $140/50min session, and are payable via Interac e-transfer, cash or cheque. Payment is due at the end of your session.
I am unfortunately unable to accept credit cards or bill insurance companies directly. I will, however, give you a receipt to submit to your extended health benefits provider, who will reimburse you directly.
I understand that illness and unexpected events are an unavoidable facet of life. Please reschedule your appointment if you are feeling unwell; a video or telephone session can be easily arranged as needed. Unless circumstances are truly beyond your control, kindly give two business days notice to change or cancel an appointment to avoid full billing.
I draw from an eclectic mix of theories and practices in my work. These often include: Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), Internal Family Systems Therapy, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavioural Therapy (DBT), Acceptance and Commitment (ACT) and Narrative Therapies, Attachment Theory, Neurobiology, Mindfulness, and Creative Arts modalities.
