Hello! Thank you for considering me as your therapist. I know reaching out for support can be difficult, but you've already taken an important step toward a better life. Life's stressors affect us all, but with the right tools and support, you can navigate them. If we work together, I will be there to support you every step of the way. I strive to create a safe, empathetic, and non-judgmental space where you can share your voice. Together, we’ll develop tools and strategies tailored to your unique needs to help you heal, grow, and become empowered, honouring your unique journey.

My approach is humanistic and person-centered, integrating cognitive behavioural therapy, solution-focused therapy, narrative therapy, psychoanalytical, and trauma-informed practices while using self-compassion and mindfulness to help you explore past experiences and present challenges, rewrite your story, and create goals to build a meaningful future.

Book your consult today and start your healing. Together, we will collaborate to unlock your potential, break free from limiting patterns and beliefs, and cultivate empowerment and self-confidence. Remember, your needs matter and you deserve to move forward in your healing journey.
