Clients often come to me feeling stuck in anxiety, self-doubt, or overwhelmed by past experiences. Many struggle with performance anxiety, social anxiety, or confidence issues that affect school, work, relationships, or public speaking. I work with people who are ready to go beyond talk therapy to overcome their challenges and create opportunities. Using a trauma-informed, brain-body approach, including techniques such as Brainspotting and EFT tapping, I help teens and adults regulate their nervous system, process underlying experiences, and build lasting confidence so they can move forward with greater ease.
I bring extensive experience across community services, schools, disability, and corporate settings. I’m also an experienced workshop facilitator and retreat host. My work supports people experiencing anxiety, stress, trauma, and confidence challenges, integrating counselling with somatic techniques to support deeper and lasting change.
Taking the first step towards therapy can feel daunting, but if you're here reading this, you've already taken the first step - you're on your way toward meaningful change. If you're feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or ready to move forward, it would be my privilege to support you in a safe and compassionate space.

I work beyond traditional talk therapy by integrating brain-body approaches such as EFT (tapping) and Brainspotting. In your first session, we'll explore what has brought you to therapy and identify the most supportive way forward. Alongside conversation, these approaches work with the brain and nervous system to help process emotions, reduce anxiety, and support meaningful and lasting change.
