Life’s challenges can leave us feeling shaken and uncertain about how to move forward. While these moments can be painful, they also offer powerful opportunities for personal growth. Whether you're dealing with depression, anxiety, stress, burnout, grief, relationship issues, or life transitions, I offer a safe and compassionate space for you to be heard and understood. Together, we can explore your unique challenges, uncover your strengths, and create positive change to empower you to move forward with confidence. I work with adults from various backgrounds, including front-line workers from the UN, ICRC, & INGOs, and DV survivors.
As a registered psychotherapist with post-graduate qualifications in psychology, I take a collaborative, client-centered, solutions-based approach to therapy and provide tools to create lasting change. I integrate evidence-based techniques like CBT and DBT and integrate modalities such as EMDR and the Havening Technique to address PTSD and complex trauma.
Although the healing journey can feel overwhelming, you don’t have to navigate it alone. Everyone has the potential for change, and I invite you to take the first step on this journey. I understand the challenges of recovering from deeply impactful experiences, and I’m here to support you to dissolve roadblocks and welcome happiness back into your world.
