I often work from a Cognitive Behavioral approach, but also adapt my method to each individual\u2019s unique needs.<\/p>\n
CBT has been proven in research to be an effective treatment for a wide range of concerns. This model of therapy works on the basis that thoughts, feelings, and behaviors are all interconnected. The focus is on the way that people think (the cognitive aspect), and also on the way that they act (the behavioral aspect). Both of these areas have an effect on mood. The meanings that we assign to situations have a large influence on how we feel and behave, thus the connection between thoughts-feelings-behaviors. When we are able to recognize the thoughts and\/or behaviors that are affecting our mood in a negative way, we can then make changes that will improve mood and help us to feel better.<\/p>\n
CBT is based on the premise that people are able to live happier and more productive lives when they are able to think and behave in a healthier way. By reviewing a person\u2019s belief system and the emotions that are tied to their underlying beliefs, the resulting thoughts and behaviors can be altered.<\/p>\n

Sometimes we need to seek help from a trained professional to work through problems that we are encountering. You may need counselling if:<\/p>\n

During the first session, paperwork is completed as well as a functional assessment. I will ask about your concerns and what has brought you to therapy. Once all information has been gathered, goals for therapy and a treatment plan can be discussed.<\/p>\n

You should feel comfortable with your psychologist and be able to discuss personal information. It is important to have a good rapport with your psychologist and feel at ease with him\/her.<\/p>\n
In order to determine if we are a good fit for each other, I offer a free 20 minute consultation.<\/p>\n

Sessions are 60 minutes in length, which includes admin time (i.e. payment, booking next appointments, etc). Longer sessions may be arranged in 15 minute segments.<\/p>\n

Therapy is individual to each person and the amount of time required is dependant on several factors. Some of these factors include the nature of the concerns brought to therapy, complexity of the issues, amount of work completed outside of sessions, and motivation to change.<\/p>\n

The Fee Schedule recommended by the Psychologists\u2019 Association of Alberta is a guideline for setting fees for services. My fees are set using this schedule as a guideline. You can access this fee schedule on the Psychologists\u2019 Association website at www.psychologistsassociation.ab.ca.<\/p>\n
My fee for individual sessions is $220\/hour.<\/p>\n
Alberta Health Care does not cover the cost of psychological services. However, I will issue a receipt for fees paid, and if you have an insurance plan, this may be submitted to your insurance company for full or partial re-imbursement.<\/p>\n
