MA., RCC

My work is informed by the idea that all problems are about relationships: With Self, with Other, or with some aspect of the environment. When these relationships are working, we feel a genuine sense of wellness but when any one of these relationships are fractured in some way, our sense of well being is threatened and we will begin to see symptoms physically, emotionally, and/or in our relationships.

I am a Registered Clinical Counsellor with 20 years of experience working with couples and individuals (including adolescents). I have worked in a school setting, in clinic settings, as well as in private practice.

My experience includes:

  • Trauma
  • Stress and Anxiety Disorders
  • Depression
  • Loss and Grief
  • Betrayal
  • Self-harming behaviours

My approach with couples: I see each marriage or coupling as a profound opportunity for personal growth. I help each partner to see the dance that they have helped to choreograph in this relationship, and together we create a new dance.

My methods with couples include:

  • EFT
  • Body Centred Psychotherapy
  • CBT
  • Satir Transformational Model
  • Bader/Pearson Developmental Model

My approach with Individuals: I use an attachment based, experiential approach which helps you to access parts of yourself that you have been taught to ignore. Utilizing all of the strengths that you bring to therapy, we work together towards the healing and growth that will bring about the changes you have identified.

My methods individuals include:

  • EFT
  • EMDR
  • Body Centred Psychotherapy
  • CBT
  • AEDP

Testimonials

Paul Goddard

20 sessions of Direct Neurofeedback brought back youthful energy, a more relaxed body, cleared tons of stuck emotions, vivified my senses (especially smell), and opened up never before felt sensations in my gut, like that area had been numbed out my whole life, which resulted in a whole bunch of new emotional growth. All the results are still with me months later and feels permanent. The staff are all proficient and nice and the process of making appointments is convenient and smooth. This is a great office and great healing process.

I like to think that this place saved my brain. I’ve struggled my whole life with a pretty severe anxiety disorder, featuring some fantastic panic attacks… got so bad that at one point it was happening multiple times a day. After several sessions I could start to feel a change and that gave me hope… years later, my anxiety is SO much better and panic attacks are slim to none. Couldn’t have done it without Claire, Laura and the rest of the team at Alpine! Highly recommend!!
