I offer evening and weekend availability. My trauma-focused practice incorporates a diverse range of modalities such as EMDR, Somatic Experiencing, Parts Work, Art-Based Approaches, & Equine Assisted Therapy. The dual perspective of my practice as a Trauma-Focused Therapist & my personal journey of healing from trauma has equipped me with a deep understanding of the bravery, dedication, & strength that accompanies the trauma healing journey. With over 10 years experience as an RSW, my background enables me to establish profound connections with my clients & provide them with compassionate, empathetic support.
I believe that the journey to emotional well-being is a tapestry woven with different threads of healing. Whether it’s through harnessing the connection between humans & horses, the expressive strokes of a paintbrush or the profound breakthroughs that can occur with EMDR, I am here to guide you every step of the way.
I am dedicated to providing effective trauma-focused psychotherapy by creating restorative experiences and centring your unique experiences and embodied wisdom.
