My ideal clients are those who are usually shoved to the side, or seen as "too much to handle". I'm passionate about LGBTQIA+ and neurodivergency advocacy (having lived experience in both areas), and will always try my hardest to provide my clients with care that works with their strengths, and not against them. To me, where you've come from doesn't completely tell your story - it's where you end up, and how you get there, that really matters.
I believe that there's no such thing as a "too hard" basket, and that everyone deserves access to mental health care that embodies their values and places emphasis on their personal positive traits. Accessing supports with me at Orion's Space will make sure that you leave heard, respected, and deeply understood.
If any of the above is resonating with you, just know that I see you, and I hear you. You are always welcome to reach out when you're ready to take the first step.

I work with clients who find that they're struggling to "fit in" with the "real world", most commonly showing some form of negative self-belief. In our first few sessions, we'll build on rapport with myself making sure that the space is as comfortable as it can be for you. Afterwards, we'll get into the nitty-gritty, collaborating on a treatment plan with goals that work for you, not against you.

I'm an eclectic counsellor; I don't just stick to a singular modality. More often than not, I'll be working in the post-modernistic field, calling upon strengths-based and solution focused modalities. I am known to supplement my practice with a hint of CBT and DBT, however I take pride in integrating creative arts and holistic methods to my practice. If something isn't working, please let me know!
