EMDR Basic Training
Ignite Your Light Psychology
I have over 18 years of experience in the mental health field, having worked with adolescents and adults experiencing complex mental health, trauma and addictions. I have Master’s in Counselling Psychology and am a Registered Psychologist (#5505) in the province of Alberta.
My area of practice is the following:
Trauma (simple and complex).
– Including developmental traumas and traumas in attachment.
Perinatal mental health
Birth and reproductive trauma
Postpartum and parental adjustments
Addictions
Mood disorders
Grief and loss
Life changes and transitions
I am informed in my practice by my education, clinical training, current evidence-based research, and my own experiences with parenting and life challenges,. My approach to counselling is deeply trauma-informed and attachment based.
On a personal note, as a Mama of two, busy young boys, I know how overwhelming the transition to motherhood is and how beautiful and exhausting parenting can be. At Ignite Your Light, I crate a safe space for clients to share what has happened to them. We work together to understand the problem, heal the hurts and get them living their best life.
