About

I am a clinical counsellor (psychotherapist) and a university professor who holds academic degrees in criminology, sociology, counselling psychology, and I am
completing my doctorate in developmental psychology.

When I named my practice MindWorX, I did so because I’ve always professionally identified as a teacher-counsellor; one who is invested in learning and working in a dual teaching and counselling role that specifically focuses on ‘how the mind works’. I integrate over two decades of formal post-secondary teaching into my clinical and developmental counselling approaches to provide a unique and distinct service experience that is especially important in a tumultuous social and political climate of extreme change and uncertainty. I focus on the importance of providing essential mental health and total well-being services for men, women, and families and I champion the approach of human centred therapy to develop tailored treatment goals while ensuring assessments and clinical interventions are evidence-based.

I offer individual and group counselling, well-being consulting, psychoeducation, supplemental learning, and outreach-community group work towards client self-management and care. I believe in working with people to help them identify their personal strengths, abilities, and resilience to facilitate the treatment of psychological difficulties and effectuate personal growth and development.

A Unique Approach to Counselling
My approach to clinical counselling (psychotherapy) is grounded in developmental psychopathology, a branch of psychology concerned with studying the origins,
development and path of psychological problems over the life span. To understand the complexities involved with human development, this approach maps the many diverse pathways individuals may take while experiencing or finding themselves in the process of developing psychological difficulties. This mapping of psychopathology pathways helps clients better visualize how their diverse symptomologies have over time come to shape the distress they are experiencing along with an understanding of the root problem.

Who Am I?
I’m an integrative clinician who employs cognitive and affective psychology as part of my combined approach to clinical and developmental counselling. This entails being a
clinical practitioner whose:

  • education and experiences underscore an integrative and interdisciplinary practice towards high-quality mental health and substance use outpatient care for men, women, and families;
  • clinical interests and concentration focus on working with late adolescent and adult developmental psychopathologies. This area of counselling and therapy specialization focuses on the abnormal cognitive, emotional, and social psychological processes over a person’s life span that in turn leads to adult personality and identity developmental delays or difficulties. This may result in an underdeveloped, fragmented, or a shattered sense of self and may present from adverse childhood experiences;
  • clinical approaches include integrated clinical and developmental counselling therapies to treat mental, emotional, and behavioural disorders such as anxiety, depression, trauma and stressor related disorder, in addition to substance use and addiction recovery.
