Psychotherapy
What is psychotherapy?

Psychotherapy is a collaborative process that provides space to explore emotional, relational, or psychological difficulties. The aim is to develop a deeper understanding of what may be contributing to distress and to support meaningful change over time.
How do I know whether psychotherapy is right for me?

Psychotherapy may be helpful when emotions, relationships, recurring patterns, trauma, or significant life experiences feel difficult to understand or manage. You do not need a diagnosis or a crisis to begin.
What happens in the first session?
3
The first session is an opportunity to discuss what brings you to therapy, your current concerns, and what you hope to better understand. You can also ask questions about my approach and what working together may involve.
Psychological Evaluation
What is a psychological evaluation?
1
A psychological evaluation is a structured process used to develop a comprehensive understanding of psychological functioning and to answer a specific referral question.
What can a psychological evaluation help clarify?
2
A psychological evaluation may help clarify emotional, behavioural, relational, developmental, personality, diagnostic, or legal concerns, particularly when the situation is complex or difficult to understand.

Each evaluation is tailored to the referral question and typically includes clinical interviews, psychological testing, and other relevant sources of information when appropriate.
Clinical Consultation
What is clinical consultation?
1
Clinical consultation offers professionals an opportunity to think through complex situations and develop a clearer understanding of the psychological factors that may be involved.

Clinical consultation is intended for professionals working in clinical, legal, educational, or institutional settings who are seeking psychological input on a difficult or unclear situation.
How is consultation different from supervision?
