If you are struggling, feeling lost, in conflict with yourself or loved ones, grieving or looking for meaning and purpose, please reach out. I aim to support people in need, to listen, and hold space for sharing difficult life experiences. I, too, have endured adversity, and in my darkest hours, I found the courage to reach out and seek the support I needed. Through lived experience of addiction, suicide, FDV, narcissism, divorce, and parent alienation combined with expertise in counselling and specialist therapy knowledge, I focus on rebuilding lives and relationships, instilling hope when all seems lost.
Healing emerges through thoughtfully integrated therapy methods carefully tailored to your unique situation. Together, we'll develop lasting life skills and deeper self-understanding through powerful experiential interventions drawn from evidence-based approaches, including Emotion Focused Therapy, Gottman Therapy, IFS, Gestalt, and Schema Therapy.
I'm committed to easing your burden of depression, anxiety, trauma, grief, suicidal thoughts, addiction, and relationship wounds—including the devastating impact of affairs, separation, and parental alienation. When everything feels shattered beyond repair, allow me to walk beside you as you find the courage to rebuild and begin again.
