I received a Master's Degree and Doctorate in clinical psychology at the University of North Dakota before completing an internship at London Health Sciences Centre in London, Ontario. I specialize in assessment and treatment for chronic pain, illness adjustment and rehabilitation, and have worked extensively with chronic conditions including fibromyalgia, chronic fatigue syndrome, complex regional pain syndrome and acquired brain injury. I also have many years of experience assessing and treating conditions such as depression, anxiety and posttraumatic stress disorder.
What is the current wait for an appointment?
The current wait for service is currently 4-6 months.
Are appointments in-person or online?
All appointments are conducted online. Online services are provided through OnCall Health, which assures security and privacy between healthcare providers and clients.
Are appointments available by phone?
Yes, telephone appointments are available for those preferring this.
Are services covered by provincial health?
Private services are not covered by provincial health, but many extended health benefit plans provide a degree of coverage annually for employees and their family members. An explanation of your benefits should include a description of clinical psychology services, and you may be required to obtain a referral from your primary physician. Fees may be covered for clients having open claims with insurers, including Manitoba Public Insurance and Workers Compensation of Manitoba, among others, depending on situation and province. For those without coverage fees are income tax deductible.
What type of treatment is provided?
I am experienced in a number of treatment approaches, but primarily rely on Cognitive Behavioural Therapy and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy.
