I am a Reg'd Psychotherapist (licensed in Canada), a Certified EFT Therapist (ICEEFT), Reg'd Marriage & Family Therapist, Pastoral Counselor & Catholic Psychotherapist with 21 years of clinical experience. I have an MA in Psychotherapy & Spirituality from St Paul University, Ottawa, Canada. I specialize in assisting couples, families & individuals with both attachment issues and deep wounds (eg. relational trauma, loss, disconnection, conflict, attachment injuries). 

EFT is the most evidence-based and successful approach in the couple/family therapy field (over 30 years of outcome studies). It is a leading depth-based approach for individual work (eg for PTSD). It is based on the science of attachment, emotion and family system theories, and integrally aligned with our Catholic core beliefs about human nature. It is an experiential, existential model that allows clients to access core emotion, order one's inner world, find meaning, emotional balance, and reveal one's deepest longings: to be seen, to be valued, to be loved. 

As a therapist of deep faith, it is clear this is the place where God hears and speaks to us: in our hearts of vulnerability.  It is from this place that clients can then engage and respond with significant others, with inner parts of self, and with God. 

EFT is unique in its grounding in attachment theory (the most researched science on personality, growth and relationships), and its trust in two aspects of our human nature - our innate need for growth (not simply symptom alleviation), and for intimate connections - the foundation of human wholeness, as God designed. 

I'm also an EFT Supervisor candidate, and I welcome developing EFT clinicians who wish to develop confidence and skills in EFT.
