If you’re here, you may be looking for support from someone who truly understands the challenges of growing up and living in a rural community. Farming has been in my family for generations—my great-grandfather, grandfather and parents were grain farmers before they sold their land, and they also raised cattle. Many of my friends from around Lloydminster still farm, or live on family farms, so I understand that life.
As a psychologist, my approach is direct and practical. I focus on providing easy-to-use tools and strategies to help navigate the unique mental health challenges that come with farming and rural life. Whether it’s farm transitions, financial stress, family dynamics, or personal concerns, my goal is to help individuals, couples and families to strengthen their communication and connection.
My work is rooted in evidence-based approaches; such as: Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing therapy (EMDR), Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) (including for Insomnia and sleep-related disorders, the Gottman Method for couples therapy and Internal Family Systems therapy (IFS). I have a particular interest in dyad and multi-person roles and relationships, as well as sleep-related concerns and chronic pain.
I know that mental and physical well-being are essential to maintaining a high quality of life, especially in agriculture, where stress can sometimes be overwhelming. If you’re looking for support, I’d love to have a conversation about what that might look like for you.
