In Person Therapists in Halifax, NS
Are you looking for practical and empathetic help for depression, panic, social anxiety, post-traumatic stress, or OCD? I specialize in the treatment of these issues using cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT), a highly effective evidence-based approach. However, I don't just focus on therapy technique: having a solid relationship and a trusting working alliance with any therapist is key to productive change. In addition to therapy, I conduct diagnostic, personality, and career assessments. I confidentially counsel clients all over BC online and in-person at my Port Moody office.

Are you ready to move beyond coping and toward change and healing? I help clients achieve their goals by introducing practical strategies/skills, while simultaneously working through the causes of issues so that symptoms reduce in the long term. This may involve re-evaluating your thinking, improving awareness and regulation of emotions, getting in tune with your values, identifying parts of yourself that are in conflict, or making peace with past experiences. Everyone's' needs are different, so I will work with you to create a personalized treatment approach.

I work with clients who are curious about the functioning of their personality, who wish to understand better their desires and needs, as well as the way they cope with frustration and grief. I help my clients develop awareness of why it is they do the things they do, feel the way they feel and think the way they think. I aim to develop the possibility of making choices where automatism took place. By automatism, I speak of these relational patterns in which we find ourselves repeating similar uncomfortable dynamics without understanding why. So, in a broader sense, I work with patients wishing to understand themselves better.

Humans are social animals; our brains are built for connection. We crave safe relationships to support us to feel, heal, deal, and grow. We all want to be the best version of ourselves, we just may not know what our best self looks like, or, may lack the support and experience required to discover such. When we are supported to identify and address the unmet needs that may block us from feeling like 'our best', we gain a greater sense of self. By understanding the impact of our relationships, attachments, and environments, we are able to truly make sense of the choices we make, and actions we may - or may not - take.
