I suffered from mild depression and anxiety after giving birth to my 4th child. I started doing coaching session with Dane, and this led me to tremendous amount of power. My anger and resentment are gone - now that I see the cause of them. I have healed, I started to ask for what I wanted, I recognize my needs and I can ask for support.
Tools & therapies that I use include: Cognitive Behavioural Therapy to restructure negative thought patterns; Observed and Experiential Integration therapy to resolve past traumas; mindfulness-based techniques to improve emotional regulation; Narrative Therapy to help you live into your preferred life story; and couples therapy to improve relationships.
I'm a Registered Psychologist in Vancouver who specializes in the assessment and treatment of anxiety, stress, and mood disorders in adults. I practice Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), a skills-based approach found to be effective in the treatment of anxiety and mood disorders. I am certified in Cognitive Behaviour Therapy (CBT) by the Canadian Association of Cognitive and Behavioural Therapies (CACBT-ACTCC).
I have received specialized training in the delivery of empirically supported treatments for anxiety disorders and depression in Canada and the United States. I have published in the area of anxiety disorders and have presented my research at numerous international conferences.
