I am a clinical psychologist who predominantly works with young adults, adults, clients from diverse cultural/linguistic/ethnic backgrounds, and individuals from the LGBTQIA+ community. I have an interest in supporting individuals who have experienced trauma and/or abuse. Through the collaborative process of therapy, you'll learn to identify your triggers, establish a sense of safety, reduce PTSD symptoms through trauma processing techniques, learn effective coping strategies, and work towards an improved quality of life beyond the trauma. I also work with a broad range of concerns such as anxiety, depression, attachment styles etc.

Are you feeling stressed, anxious or depressed and don't understand why or know how to feel better? I am passionate in making a meaningful difference in client's lives by providing an inviting, empathic, safe space to explore experiences, assist learning and understanding themselves, patterns of thinking and behaviour. Together I work with clients in understanding where their patterns of thinking came from and develop strategies to assist healing and growth.

My approach is to listen deeply with empathy and compassion to ensure I provide a non-judgmental space for clients to share their stories and life experiences. I believe that creating a warm and friendly environment is key to building trust and fostering a sense of security for my clients. One of my strengths is the ability to connect and build trusting therapeutic relationships with the people I work with. I greatly value curiosity and kindness, and this supports me to deepen my understanding of your story in every session. This creates a relationship and space where you feel safe to express yourseef freely and authentically.
