I can help guide you in a process to find the medication that optimally addresses your need to improve the overall quality of your life. We will also look into other aspects of your lifestyle to see how we can balance out your symptoms while reducing the use of medication.

In addition to medication management, I look into different nutritional supplements and lifestyle changes that can have a positive impact on your mental health. This process can help reduce the use of medication and/or provide additional support in the management of your symptoms.

I am here to listen to your story and understand how it impacts you. Through this process I can help you identify any patterns (both positive and negative) to guide your thought process to better understand yourself and develop steps to tap into your potential. The principles that I will be using are derived from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)

CBT-I is a structured, evidence-based approach that helps address the thoughts, behaviors, and habits that can contribute to insomnia. Together, we work on improving sleep patterns, reducing nighttime worry, and building healthier sleep routines—without relying solely on medication. Through CBT-i, it is can promote falling asleep easier, staying asleep longer, reducing anxiety around sleep, feeling more rested and confident in your sleep.

HOW CAN I SUPPORT YOU?
My practice is a place for adults who want to feel more in control of their lives. Perhaps you are feeling stuck, overwhelmed, directionless. I can work with you towards your path of healing. Perhaps this might be developing a purpose, feeling at peace, or learning to make sense of things.
I believe that meaningful care begins with listening. I take the time to understand the whole person, not just symptoms. Through a comprehensive and thoughtful assessment that explores the many factors influencing your mental health and well-being. Building trust is vital to my practice, and I strive to create a compassionate, nonjudgmental environment where you feel comfortable sharing your experiences. Together, we'll work to understand your needs, identify your strengths, and develop a personalized treatment plan that aligns with your goals. My hope is that every patient feels heard, cared for, and empowered throughout their journey.
I am driven to provide comprehensive care through a patient centered approach while creating a warm and safe environment.
Comprehensive: I am meticulous in my car where we will examine both the objective and subjective data. Objective data may include labs, journaling, or using measurement based care. Subjective data includes your feelings, experience, childhood, social dynamics (environment, social support system, resource access). This is why our intake session may be between 60-90 minutes.
Patient-Centred Approach: This is a highly personalized care, where your goals, values, comfort levels matter in how our session progresses and decisions in the treatment plan.
Confidential: Stigma continues to be prevalent in our society. My practice values privacy, confidentiality and maintaining a non-judgmental environment for patients to feel safe to be their genuine self while seeking care. Only through trust can we foster an honest relationship where we can truly reach the core of the issue that we wish to explore.
