Finding someone who has expertise, but importantly can connect, and quickly understand your issues, is critical. Clients tell me these qualities set me apart from others. My experience includes working with the full spectrum of life challenges, and mental health difficulties: from anxiety & depression, to relationships, ADHD, ASD, & chronic illness. From the young to older folk, parents and families, we create a safe space to explore the tricky places that maybe keeping you stuck, and find an easier path forward. With compassion and curiosity, I enjoy supporting each person to build a greater sense of self worth and confidence.

Somatic techniques can help to address embodied trauma and provide coping skills for emotional regulation, particularly in adolescence, for women's issues in the perinatal and menopausal period, and during other phases of both physical and psychological change.
Hello, I offer inclusive counselling for young people, adults, couples and families who are dealing with complex transitions, relationship challenges and identity changes, or struggling with loss, grief and unresolved trauma. With professional and lived experience among a range of diverse communities, I understand that adjusting to these events can be complicated, and even more distressing without the right kind of emotional support. It can lead us to question our journey and undermine our ability to move forward in our lives. Together we can explore whatever is happening for you in a culturally safe and trauma-informed way.

My interest ranges within various mental health issues, including those mood-related, such as depression and anxiety, and those associated with personality disorders, particularly Borderline and Narcissistic presentations. I encourage my clients to build a collaborative therapeutic relationship, where the client has the central role, and my role is to help them create a life worth living. This process often includes identifying family dynamics/early experiences that lead to unhelpful beliefs and patterns of behavior, accepting what cannot be changed and embracing the process of making changes to commit to a more meaningful life.

I believe that every person is worth being seen, heard, and known, even in all of our baggage. In our most vulnerable moments, having a safe and non-judgmental place to not only talk about our issues, but to tune into and experience them, is really important. I am interested in getting to understand not only your story, but how that story impacts your life in the here and now. I enjoy journeying alongside people from difference cultures, backgrounds and beliefs, and in experiences such as anxiety or depression, life transition, stress, struggles with boundaries, burnout, trauma, and spiritual and religious issues.

Hey, I'm Suzanne. I know that reaching out for that first appointment can feel daunting, and finding the right fit in a psych can be tricky. So let me make it a bit easier for you, by sharing a bit about me, and the kind of experience you can expect if you see me. When I sit down with someone, I make it a point to create a judgment-free zone. It's all about acceptance and genuine care. I want you to feel like you can open up about those deeply personal thoughts and feelings that maybe you've never shared before. I want you to feel truly heard and seen.

Sometimes we don't know exactly what we need help with, but we know something needs to change. You might feel anxious or sad without an obvious explanation; or have a desire to improve your self-esteem, or get over a painful break-up. You may have experienced trauma. Using a collaborative and empathic therapeutic approach grounded in evidence-based practice, I support you to make meaning of the feelings and thoughts that contribute to psychological and emotional distress. We work together to find new, adaptive ways of being that improve your quality of life, create positive coping habits, and break unhelpful relationship patterns.

I believe that the stories we tell ourselves shape our lives, our identity, and our sense of 'place' in this world. We can impact and transform our lives by exploring how we engage with our life stories - by learning to tell our stories in ways that make us stronger. Narrative Therapy, to me, is a respectful and hope-filled counseling method that connects a client with their agency and stories, empowering them to shape a different future.
