Comprehensive Psychological Assessment & Treatment
Thank you for reaching out.
By way of introduction, I have both a psychological assessment and treatment practice. My “assessment practice” focuses mostly upon those with Trauma and Stressor-Related Disorders (Adjustment Disorders, ASD, PTSD), those with chronic pain, and those who have suffered other forms of "psychological injury." These individuals will typically include RCMP members, other First Responders, and those injured in MVA's, as with ICBC.
My “treatment practice” focuses mostly upon these same individuals together with others who may suffer from anxiety (GAD, social, health anxiety), PTSD, Complex PTSD, depression, sadness, low mood, grief/bereavement, panic attacks, stress, burnout, cognitive impairment, insomnia, issues with substance use/abuse, difficulty with life transitions, workplace impairments (assessments are also available in this area), couples issues, and family relations problems.
Both practices, to the extent possible, are rigorously evidenced-based.
