EMDR Certified Therapist


Hello & Welcome, 

My name is Krista and I am truly glad you are here today! Whether this is your first time exploring the idea of therapy, or you are thinking of reconnecting with therapy, this is a positive and important step for your personal wellbeing.

I am a firm believer in the benefits of therapy, not only from a professional standpoint, but also from my own personal experiences as a client. My  therapeutic journey began when I was a teenager and, as with most humans, has been an ongoing “work in progress” depending on the season of life! 

As a Registered Social Worker and Registered Psychotherapist (Qualifying), I have spent over a decade helping individuals navigate life's challenges, while supporting their desire for change. 

The areas I specialize in include:

  • Trauma recovery

  • Post-traumatic growth

  • Managing anxiety

  • Substance use recovery

  • Processing grief and loss

  • Support through life transitions 

My warm and compassionate approach is through a person-centred lens in  collaboration with individuals to ensure your treatment is focused on what YOU would like to explore based on your goals. With this in mind, I incorporate therapeutic modalities based on your unique needs, tailored to your personal circumstances. 


The interventions I am experienced in include:

  • Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) 

  • Acceptance Commitment Therapy (ACT) 

  • Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT)

  • Motivational Interviewing (MI)

  • Psychodynamic Therapy

 

Additionally, I am certified in Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), which is a form of structured therapy that works to alleviate distress associated with traumatic memories.  

Beginning therapy is a meaningful step towards growth, and finding a therapist who feels like the right fit is an important part of that process. I would love to hear from you to connect for a free 15 minute consultation!
