I prefer working with people, because I’ve never understood computers. I work with a pretty broad range across life span, presentations, and people with ADHD and ASD. In therapy, I work with males and females from 6 years and older including adolescence and senior years. I have experience working with presentations from Anxiety and Depression to Family and Interpersonal challenges to personality presentations and Psychosis. For assessments I can work with male and females of almost any age. The youngest age I can work with depends on what is being assessed and the comprehension skills of the child being assessed. Generally, I can work from about 4 years and older.

In my work I like to draw from aspects of various models to match the person rather than following a rigid theoretical framework. Unless we’re tackling something specific, like Eating Disorders (CBT-E) or Insomnia (CBT-I), I like to view the various aspects of interventions as a toolkit to match the specifics of a person’s needs. Some frameworks I draw from are:

• The Fundamentals: Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Schema Therapy, and Psychoeducation.

• The Deep Work: Internal Family Systems, Interpersonal Therapy, and Dialectical Behaviour Therapy.

• The Practical: Motivational Interviewing, Solution Focused Behaviour Therapy, and Exposure Therapy.
