Let's Connect (437) 747-7195

Our experiences inform how we learn to show up in the world. We develop creative ways of adapting to situations that would otherwise be intolerable. At times, these adaptations can leave us feeling anxious, disconnected or unsure of ourselves in relationships. Gestalt therapy offers a relational, present-moment approach that builds awareness around your patterns by paying attention to your thinking-moving-sensing-feeling body. Together, we explore how to trust your body, trust your experience, and reconnect with a sense of wholeness, without needing to correct or improve yourself. Freedom comes from being yourself.

I support adults navigating anxiety, stress, burnout, overwhelm, and sensitivity. If overextending, people-pleasing, or feeling like you're “too much” are common for you, we’ll explore the root of these recurring motifs. Together, we build awareness, self-trust, and sustainable ways of relating so you can feel more grounded, clear, and fully yourself.

Building resilience and capacity with anxiety, stress, or relationship discomfort means understanding your experience, not changing who you are. It can be helpful to have a willing witness on your side during this process of self-inquiry. If you’re seeking therapy that honours your whole self and supports meaningful change, I invite you to reach out.

I work with individuals facing anxiety, loneliness, and a sense of disconnection, often in search of meaning and purpose. The Gestalt process offers an experiential, creative, and experimental approach. Our work could explore what's arising for you, and collaborate to find a path forward that meets you where you are, while viewing symptoms as valuable messages to explore.
