I am an AASECT certified (Diplomate) Sex Therapist/ and Supervisor, an Associate in Sex Education and a Clinical Sexologist. I also provide psychological/forensic assessment services and counselling to children, adolescents, adults, couples and families. Although I use numerous psychological approaches to achieve client success, my foundation is in client-centered, cognitive behavioural therapy within a systemic model that focuses on pushing through issues for growth and success.
I am also trained in Eye Movement Desensitization and Re-processing (EMDR) techniques for recurrent traumatic images and post traumatic stress disorder issues as well as Clinical Hypnosis. I am also trained in forensic, custody/access, risk and parenting/psychological assessments.
I am frequently contacted by magazines and major newspapers for interviews and I've often been quoted in print on topics related to sexuality, relationships and violence issues. I've been quoted in the Edmonton Journal, the Edmonton and Toronto Sun, and See Magazine to name a few and I was a regular guest on Access/Help T.V. and has also made guest appearances on CBC T.V., CBC radio and A Channel and 630 CHED.
