Welcome.

I am a rural psychology practitioner of counselling and EMDR.

I am a teacher focused on Health Law and Counselling Ethics. I teach those in training to become psychologists.

I am an entrepreneur, solving problems related to solo/rural psychologist practice transitions. When life makes it impossible for private practice psychologists to do their job, me and my team can be activated to look after clients’ needs until the professional can return. We at the Rock Lake Team are the “substitute teachers” of private practice psychology.

What I Do.

I provide individual counselling and EMDR to adults at our office in Whitecourt, or online throughout Alberta. Areas of focus include: PTSD, Veterans, First Responders, Anxiety, trauma, ADHD, grief, stressed-out high achievers.
