I am open to all clients. I deeply believe that counselling can improve all of our lives in some way. Whatever your goals or struggles, I am committed to helping you work towards feeling better and living your best life. I believe that accessing self-compassion is a powerful route to healing and reconnecting to ourselves.

It is my honour to deeply listen and support your personal journey through whatever life circumstances bring you to counselling. We can work through difficult experiences, relationship challenges, (family, romatic, and workplace), through the lens of attachment, adverse childhood experiences, trauma, addictions/unhealthy coping mechanisms, grief, and shifting ongoing patterns that you want to change. I value your individual experience, and that you are the expert in your own life. I am here to deeply listen and help you find your meaning, purpose and understandings and to offer a personalized approach and a sense of belonging.

“Pain is inevitable; suffering is optional”. This wisdom reflects my approach to therapy. You can’t prevent storms from happening, you can hardly stop others from hurting you, and you may never get rid of your inner critic’s voice entirely. There's no way to erase the memories of past traumas. Yet, there surely is a way to lessen the burden, to ease the struggle, to change your relationship with others and - most importantly - with Self. Discover your way to cease the unnecessary suffering and reclaim balance and joy. How?

Change is always hard. Whether something or someone in our life needs to change — or it already has — or we've decided that something inside ourselves needs to shift, it's never easy. But living with the feeling that something isn't right is hard too — it can leave us with frustration and resentment in our relationships, dip us down into depression and exhaustion, or put us in a pattern of all-too-familiar anxiousness, submissiveness, and anger. If any of this sounds familiar, counselling can help.

Counselling provides a safe space to work through aspects of your life that feel challenging. In my practice I have experience working with a diverse range of individuals with various challenges including anxiety, depression, relationship concerns, body image, and self-esteem. Working together, my goal is for you to feel supported in your journey while gaining insights into your present problems. In a session I will work collaboratively with you to better understand the root of your concerns and build a path forward. Our sessions may include processing the past, creating goals for the future, and discovering the present.

I work with individuals and couples who feel stuck in their lives in different ways and are looking for a fresh perspective and alignment with current goals.

I am dedicated to bringing my full presence, knowledge, and experience to our relationship to support you in fostering the changes you seek in your inner and outer worlds.

Whether you are feeling stuck in life, experiencing a transition or loss, or feeling disconnected from your core self, counselling can help. My clients are typically high-functioning and competent individuals, yet struggle on the inside with issues such as anxiety, emptiness, identity and recurring unhelpful patterns which affect them, their relationships, and other areas of their lives. What if you viewed the parts of you that feel stuck or the issues that you experience as profound opportunities for growth and transformation?

Life is difficult. I work with clients to relieve pain and stress in their lives through somatic therapy, narrative therapy, psychoanalytic theory, and personality theory while using strategies such as CBT, with the goal of living a more meaningful life. As clients discover more about their morals and values, they understand more about their behaviour and emotions. Psychotherapy can be an incredible experience; I encourage clients to explore what is meaningful and purposeful in their life.

It takes a lot of courage to reach out for support and no one needs to feel alone in their struggles.

When working with an individual I recognize each person's uniqueness and individual needs, therefore I customize my approach. My goal is to ensure my clients always feel safe and supported.

The poet, Mark Doty, writes: "What did you think, that joy was some slight thing?" The common view of therapy is that it's a place to unload & unpack the hardships & woes that burden you. Many of us are accustomed to thinking that joy is 'some slight thing', that our shadows are far more complex, dynamic & compelling. Contrary to this, my experiences as a therapist reveal to me how people's resilience, hopes & dreams are far more sophisticated & worthy of examination than the tricks & underbellies of their so-called demons. I am passionate about helping people reclaim joy & vitality; to find possibilities where they only see walls.
