Many of the people I work with feel stuck, overwhelmed, or disconnected from themselves. Some know exactly what’s going on, others just don’t feel like themselves, or have a quiet sense that things could be different. We might explore anxiety, mood, OCD, ADHD, trauma, burnout, identity, relationships, or something else entirely. I work with people of all identities and neurotypes, with a particular interest in LGBTQIA+ and neurodivergent experiences. At Lavender Psychology, you're welcome just as you are. We’ll work gently toward relief, clarity, and a stronger sense of self.
I'm a Clinical Psychologist offering therapy for adolescents (16+) and adults, and assessments (12+) for ADHD, autism, and learning differences. I support clients with anxiety, OCD, trauma, identity, neurodivergence, and more. My approach includes EMDR, ACT, CBT, DBT, Imagery Rescripting, and mindfulness, in inclusive and affirming care.
It’s not always easy to reach out, especially when things feel uncertain, heavy, or hard to put into words. If you’re looking for a space where you can feel supported, understood, and gently guided, I’d be honoured to work with you. You're welcome just as you are, and we can figure the rest out together. You don’t have to do this alone.
