I lead with a client-centered trauma-informed approach. I believe you are the master of your life however sometimes you may need support to help move you through a "stuck" situation. Together we can explore the questions you are unable to answer and find a way "through," while moving toward a happier and calmer present and future.

If you're a mother who is searching for mental health support because you're feeling overwhelmed, burnt out, overstimulated, like you're just not coping, or you're working on breaking cycles of generational trauma and re-parenting yourself, you are most certainly not alone. A safe space to talk about these unique challenges of motherhood with someone who understands can be so validating and healing.

Reaching out to start therapy can be anxiety-provoking. It's important to me that you feel comfortable in session and we build a trusting relationship as it's the foundation of therapeutic success. My aim is to help you understand why you feel or behave in the ways that you do and find helpful coping strategies to live a more meaningful life. Therapy goals are based on your priorities and values. In sessions, we will discuss how your feelings, thoughts, trauma or current stressors are impacting your life. I incorporate mindfulness, self-compassion, somatic regulation and value-based actions to work towards your goals.

Have you checked all of the boxes, followed all of the steps, and find yourself asking ‘now what?’ Whether it’s navigating a career path or your relationships, it can be challenging to know the right way forward. As someone who has recently moved home after living abroad, I understand how difficult it can be to determine the next steps personally and professionally. I offer counselling that can provide you with a space to tune out the outside noise and tune in to your own thoughts and feelings. While there is no one right way to do things, together we’ll explore the way that is right for you.

I help men that: struggle to understand and communicate emotions so instead bottle them up; overwhelmed with anxiety and anger; feel helpless and passive and thereby suppress their feelings; get lost and stuck in depression; struggle with low self-esteem; tried counselling but never discovered the roots of their issues, their progress plateaued, or didn't gain anything from it; and who struggle to achieve deep, lasting changes in their feelings, thoughts, and behaviours. If you resonate with any of the above, you are ready to stop talking in circles about your issues and start tackling your problems head-on to make real progress.
