Some people struggle to manage their emotions and behaviour - maybe they get angry too often, or upset over "silly" things - and they want to understand why. Other people are looking for the right mental health support, due to known current or historical problems and diagnoses. I like to ask new clients: "What do you want to be different in your life when our work is done?" The client's answer may be specific or vague, surprising or long-known. Either way, I can probably help you answer those sorts of questions in a safe place, where painful or distressing thoughts can safely be disclosed and heard - respectfully, therapeutically.
I chiefly treat trauma & Autistic adults (diagnosed or undiagnosed), initially looking at relationships, emotions & productivity. Psychoeducation & our rapport are critical - clients need to feel safe & know as much about their MH as I do. I also offer EMDR, CBT, relaxation techniques, motivational interviewing, career counselling, couples & family therapy.
People living with trauma or autism typically show a cluster of symptoms: general anxiety, social anxiety, poor anger management, emotional dysregulation, relationship challenges, avoidance, poor sleep and substance abuse among others. These symptoms will keep recurring until the underlying trauma or autism is named and managed. That's where I can help.
