​In my personal life, you can expect to see me in the stands at my sons’ hockey practices or going for long walks in my community with my husband, boys and loyal pup. I am a homebody at heart, but I like to try new things and have some laughs with my select few. I like to find the light side to things and sarcasm is my thing. I look forward to getting to know one another and I welcome a free virtual or phone consultation to see if I am right for your journey!

I am passionate about food, art, continuing to grow in my field, and spending time with those I love. I strive to be very authentic in my approach to therapy and my approach to life! I would describe myself as an extroverted introvert that loves trying new restaurants, being creative , and a good vanilla latte. I am very outgoing and social, but definitely need my alone time to recharge my battery.

I also have a special interest in supporting folks with reconnecting to Indigenous cultural practices, reclaiming identity, and overcoming complex or intergenerational traumatic experiences. I place a high value on the therapeutic relationship, aim to guide without imposing my agenda, and ensure I am viewing each person in context of their holistic experiences. I welcome you to book a consultation with me if you feel I could be a good fit for your healing journey.

As a young adult male and father, I can relate to some of the societal pressures and challenges young people and men face today. I am incredibly passionate about working with young males ages 13 to 35+ who are navigating life transitions, societal or cultural pressures, general stress, student or career stress, burnout, depression, anxiety, and trauma. Mental health can sometimes present differently among men, and men can sometimes hesitate to reach out for support. Men are also good at concealing their struggles. I am passionate about helping men to get accurately diagnosed and supported. I am confident we can get you through this current stage of your life and help you build resilience for your future.
​
Despite society promoting that men should be more open about their mental health, I know men aren’t always met with acceptance in all circles or contexts of their lives. The idea that men should be stoic, independent, and provide for their families still prevails today, and it can be isolating, especially if this doesn’t align with who you are or want to be. I have found effective strategies to navigate these challenges as well as combat anxiety, depression, burnout, and more. I look forward to learning about your unique circumstances and discussing how we can get you back to living a manageable and fulfilling life. I welcome a free virtual or phone consultation to see if we work well together!

My name is Marli, and I am a Registered Provisional Psychologist. My professional background spans several years in the mental health field, where I take a holistic and individualized approach to care. I bring a unique blend of neuroscience and psychotherapy into my work, recognizing the central role of the brain in emotional and psychological well-being.

My academic foundation includes a Master’s degree in Counselling Psychology and a Master’s degree in Cognitive Neuroscience. I am also a board-certified diplomate with the International QEEG Certification Board and a trained neurofeedback technician through the Biofeedback Certification International Alliance. This multidisciplinary background allows me to integrate neurophysiological insights with evidence-based therapeutic modalities to support clients in meaningful and measurable ways.

I’ve had the privilege of working with individuals across the lifespan—including children, adults, and seniors—in both private practice and public healthcare settings. My approach is client-centered, flexible, and collaborative. While I draw from a range of therapeutic modalities, I remain open and responsive to approaches that best align with each client’s unique goals and values. I place a strong emphasis on building a trusting therapeutic relationship, as I believe it is foundational to meaningful change.

I have completed both foundational and advanced training in Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) therapy, which I integrate into my work to support clients navigating trauma, anxiety, and other complex emotional experiences. I am committed to ongoing professional development and strive to create a safe, supportive, and empowering space where clients can heal, grow, and thrive.

A Little More About Me

Outside of my professional life, family time is very important to me. I enjoy spending time with my husband and our two daughters, staying active outdoors, and hopping on my bike whenever I can. Physical activity and nourishing my body with wholesome, healthy foods are core parts of my daily routine. I believe this balanced lifestyle enriches both my personal well-being and my work, allowing me to bring energy, presence, and positivity to every client interaction.

I’m Dayna, a Registered Psychologist who integrates mind-body approaches to support healing, stress-recovery, and overall well-being. I often support clients coping with family conflict, grief, anxiety, self-esteem, insomnia, and relationship issues. I also have a commitment to affirming care for LGBTQ+ clients and those exploring identity, gender, or body image. I bring curiosity and care to understanding how your environment, relationships, and history have shaped your inner world.

My style is warm, collaborative, and grounded in respect for your lived experience. I offer a nonjudgmental space where you can be fully seen and supported while we work through patterns that no longer serve you. I work with adults navigating challenges, including OCD, ADHD, anxiety, mood disorders, trauma, codependency, and life transitions.

I do this work out of respect for human resilience and the change that can occur when someone truly feels safe and supported. Since 2013, I’ve worked with people in a variety of mental health settings, and am continually inspired by the courage, tenderness, and complexity clients can bring to the process. I look forward to working with you.
