Along with my passion for helping mental health professionals learn EFT, I have with a heart for helping individuals, couples, and families navigate the complexities of emotional connections.

EFT Trainer | Guest Speaker

Are you looking for an EFT presenter to speak to your association, clinic, or small group practice? Over the past 6 years, I have shared the EFT model with many groups and clinics, both big and small, sharing the Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT) model. Whether you're looking for a 1.5-hour luncheon and learn for your group or a grand round for your clinic, please send me an email. I’d be happy to discuss your needs and tailor a talk for your group.

As an ICEEFT-certified Trainer, I can break down the EFT model into digestible parts, making the model accessible and actionable. My approach, honed through years of experience and a profound understanding of the EFT model, is tailored to bring out the best in clinicians.

Approach & Techniques

Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT) is at the core of my practice, a model grounded in attachment science that fosters deep connections within oneself and with others. Known for its effectiveness in addressing trauma, anxiety, and depression, EFT provides a therapeutic roadmap that is both structured and transformative. My commitment to this approach is driven by its proven capacity to facilitate profound emotional shifts, offering a pathway to secure and resilient relationships.

Embrace Change and Growth

Embarking on this journey with me means choosing a path of growth, connection, and empowerment. Whether you are a clinician seeking to enrich your practice or an individual, couple of family on a path to creating greater connections with self and others,  I am here to support and guide you toward achieving your fullest potential.

Professional Background & Qualifications

I am registered with the College of Registered Psychotherapists of Ontario (#001356) and have been in private practice since 2001. My journey with EFT began in 2001 when I met Dr. Sue Johnson at a training session in Toronto. Becoming passionate about EFT, this encounter led to my certification as an EFT Therapist in 2007, and subsequently, I became an ICEEFT Certified EFT Supervisor in 2010 and an EFT Trainer in 2018. My commitment to this approach has been further enriched by my involvement in community-building within the EFT sphere and my dedication to continuous learning and teaching, both online and in-person.
