Book An Appointment

I enjoy working with individuals who feel lost, overwhelmed by life’s circumstances, and who are seeking support for internal and external change in their lives. This journey that you are on (or are on the verge of starting), can feel lonely or too much to take on by yourself at times, or it may even be too intimidating to know where to begin. If you can relate to this, then you’ve come to the right place.

I believe that therapy should be a safe, inclusive, and non-judgemental environment, where we can collaboratively explore your concerns in a way where you can feel supported, validated, and understood. I love holding a space for people to process their presenting concerns and make meaningful change in their lives in a supportive environment.

If you would like to connect and see if we are a good fit, please reach out to schedule an appointment. I offer a free initial consultation that you can book by following the link to my booking page.


Congratulations on taking the first step towards your therapeutic goals and I hope to have the privilege of connect with you!

Approach

Everyone is unique, that is why I take a holistic and integrative approach in my practice that includes Cognitive Behavioural therapy (CBT), Person-Centred therapy, Narrative therapy, and Solution-focused therapy, based on the needs of my client.

Specialization

I have worked with a variety of presenting issues including anxiety, depression, relationship issues, self-esteem/identity, grief/loss, and sudden and unexpected life changes.
