Prior to joining the team at Oracle, Dr. Clarke worked in several clinical settings including an outpatient rehabilitation clinic with the Saskatchewan Health Authority, a community-based counselling centre, private practice, and a university-based EAP program. Since 2015, her clinical work has focused on multidisciplinary rehabilitation programs for individuals injured in workplace and motor vehicle accidents. Dr. Clarke currently provides psychological assessment and treatment with adults struggling with issues including trauma, anxiety, depression, stress, life transitions, pain management, identity issues, and relationship problems. She enjoys the opportunity to collaborate with other healthcare professionals to provide holistic care, and believes in tailoring treatment to the needs of her clients. She strives to help individuals realize the strengths they already possess and empower them to use these strengths – as well as any new learning that can be gained – to persevere and move forward in their healing and growth.
