Approaches.
Therapy tailored to your needs.
There is no one-size-fits-all approach to healing.
As an eclectic therapist, I draw from various evidence-based methods to meet your individual needs. Below are some of the key therapeutic approaches I use to support police officers and first responders.

What it is:
CBT is a practical, goal-oriented therapy that helps you identify and change unhelpful thought patterns and behaviours that contribute to distress.What to expect:
We'll work together to recognize unhelpful thinking patterns, challenge them, and develop healthier coping strategies. Sessions tend to be structured and collaborative, with optional exercises you can practice between sessions.Best for:
Anxiety, depression, stress management, and developing practical coping skills. -
What it is:
PE is a specialized therapy for PTSD and trauma-related symptoms that helps you confront trauma-related memories, feelings, and situations you may have been avoiding.What to expect:
Through gradual, controlled exposure to trauma memories and reminders, you'll have an opportunity to learn that these memories are not dangerous and that distress tends to decrease over time.Best for:
Post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), trauma-related avoidance, and intrusive memories. -
What it is:
CPT is an evidence-based treatment for PTSD that helps you understand and reframe how trauma has affected your thoughts and beliefs about yourself, others, and the world.What to expect:
We'll examine unhelpful beliefs that developed after trauma and work to challenge and modify them. This tends to be a fairly structured approach and typically includes written exercises and guided discussion.Best for:
PTSD, trauma recovery, and addressing beliefs like guilt, shame, or loss of trust. -
What it is:
EFT is a structured approach to couples and individual therapy that focuses on attachment and emotional bonding, helping you understand and reshape emotional responses.What to expect:
We'll explore underlying emotions and attachment needs that drive relationship patterns. For individuals, this means understanding how past attachment experiences influence current relationships.Best for:
Relationship difficulties, communication problems, emotional disconnection, and building secure attachments.
