About Us

About Me

I’m a Registered Psychotherapist (Qualifying) with a Master’s degree in Counselling Psychology. My experience includes working in both community mental health and private practice, where I’ve supported adults navigating personal challenges, life transitions, and questions about identity and purpose. I bring a warm, collaborative, and non-judgmental presence to my work, grounded in deep respect for each person’s unique story and inner world.

I work with adults who often appear capable and successful on the outside, yet feel stuck, unfulfilled, or disconnected from their deeper sense of direction. Many of my clients are thoughtful, self-aware, and hold themselves to high standards. They may identify as neurodivergent, highly successful, driven, or deeply sensitive individuals who want more clarity, meaning, and alignment in their lives.

​

Together, we create space for self-discovery and honest reflection. I support clients in exploring life transitions, reconnecting with their authentic selves, and understanding patterns that may be keeping them feeling stuck. Our work may include processing trauma, navigating relational challenges, strengthening emotional regulation, and clarifying life direction. I am especially passionate about helping people reconnect with their inner strengths, soften self-criticism, and move toward a life that feels more intentional, fulfilling, and true to who they are.

My Approach 

My approach to therapy is warm, compassionate, and structured, with a focus on creating a supportive space where you feel understood and valued. I take an individualized approach, tailoring sessions to each client’s unique needs and goals. I draw from a variety of evidence-based modalities, including:

​

  • Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT)

  • Internal Family Systems (IFS)

  • Person-Centred Therapy

  • Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT)

  • Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT)

  • Mindfulness-Based Therapy

  • Solution-Focused Brief Therapy (SFBT)

  • Psychodynamic Therapy​

  • Sex Therapy

  • Gottman Therapy

​

My goal is to provide a non-judgmental, collaborative space where you can feel truly seen, accepted, and empowered to explore your thoughts and emotions. Together, we will work at a pace that feels comfortable for you, addressing immediate challenges while also building long-term skills for growth, balance, and resilience.
