I provide compassionate support for individuals experiencing psychosis, using evidence-based approaches to enhance coping skills, self-awareness, and emotional stability in their journey toward recovery.
I have worked with family members of folks with psychosis, schizophrenia and other chronic mental health challenges. In our work together, you will come to understand family dynamics and patterns that can change in order to change the family system. I hold space for client's to acknowledge the difficulties in their daily lives and also to understand their own feelings and reactions to what they are going through.
Psychosis can be disruptive to life. It is a symptom. In my experience, drug induced psychosis is very common and not often considered. I see this frequently as the result of substance use.
Experiencing psychosis can be frightening and disorienting. I bring a wealth of knowledge and empathy to help you navigate these challenges. My approach is grounded in creating a safe, supportive environment where we can work on understanding and managing symptoms, fostering stability, and enhancing your quality of life.
When choosing a therapist, it is important to find someone that will understand your situation. Likewise, you want to feel at ease when sharing your feelings and thoughts. My goal as a psychotherapist is to work as a team to explore alternative ways to deal with challenges. I have advanced training in Cognitive-Behavioural Therapy (CBT) and Dialectical-Behavioural Therapy (DBT). For further information, please feel free to contact me and receive a prompt reply.
