Through a collaborative therapeutic relationship, we will make sense of your presenting issues, uncover, and expand your strengths, set realistic goals, identify ways to achieve them, and develop healthy coping skills.
Are you feeling overwhelmed and stuck in life? Have you been struggling with negative thoughts, emotions, and unhealthy coping? You are not alone. Many of us face life challenges and sometimes need professional help to move through them and find ourselves again. Taking the first step in finding support can be daunting, and doing so is already a strong indicator of inner strengths like courage and resilience. I offer a safe, caring, and non-judgemental space for you to be and learn about yourself so you can move toward the life you want to live.

Personal challenges such as unmet expectations, grief and loss, wounds from the past that continue to impact your life today; present stressors in personal and professional relationships, and, of course, our relationship with ourselves are often what bring us to seek psychotherapy services. Our personal struggles currently take place in a daunting world - climate change, polarized politics, the sufferings we know others are experiencing around the globe. These impact us as well.

I enjoy working with people of all ages. I have witnessed how art therapy can help people coping with life changes and challenges such as grief, loss, illness, injury, relationship and family issues, academic and professional pressures, stress, anxiety, depression, self-esteem issues, sexuality and life transitions. Therapy, enhanced by the use of art therapy and mindfulness meditation (if desired) can help people process their emotions around difficult life situations and conditions and help people to heal, focus on living their authentic lives and thrive.

Therapy doesn't have to be intimidating or shameful. Whether you can't stop thinking about something, never feel good enough, or constantly compare yourself to others, I am here to help. If you are navigating dissociation or flashbacks, struggling with forming your identity or developing meaning in life, I can provide DBT & Trauma informed therapy. Or maybe you're looking for support with leaving a toxic job or relationship, trying to decrease the inner critic and perfectionism, or struggle with focusing and completing a task. Understanding our unconscious motivations and defence mechanisms can also be revealing character work.
