Zoey has several years of experience in both assessments and counselling. She believes people are resilient and have the power to overcome adversity and blossom in their own ways. Zoey views therapy as a safe and non-judgmental space for people to explore their current resources and learn new tools so they can live a life that is in alignment with their values and goals. In therapy, she will support her clients through their challenges and will be the first to celebrate their strengths.

Zoey specializes in counselling with youth, individuals and couples. Her special interests as a therapist include anxiety, trauma, and sex therapy and she has extensive experience working with anxiety, depression, trauma, PTSD, anger and difficulties with emotional regulation, along with a wide range of sexuality and gender issues, including sexual exploration, desire discrepancies, and out-of-control sexual behaviours.

Zoey is also skilled at conducting assessments with kids (4 years old +), youth and adults, including ADHD, psychoeducational, giftedness/IQ, and mental health assessments. She highly values the way the assessment process can inform others to make the best decisions for themselves and their families.

In therapy, Zoey draws from multiple theoretical approaches including Cognitive-Behavioural Therapy, Solution-Focused Therapy, Exposure Therapy, Emotion-focused therapy, Narrative Therapy. Additionally, she uses Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing Therapy (EMDR) in helping clients heal from trauma. She is also influenced by the Gottman Method when working with couples.

Zoey is available weekdays for phone, video and in-person sessions at the Wholeness Psychology Centre Sherwood Park office.
