With curiosity and compassion, I support you to set and reach goals, break habitual patterns and find better ways of coping. I work with clients ages 14 and up with diagnosed or undiagnosed ADHD and other learning exceptionalities and/or issues related to anxiety, depression, grief, body image/disordered eating, parenting (birth to teen), emotional abuse, stress management and burnout. I’m committed to a trauma-informed, anti-oppressive, LGBT2SQ+ informed practice.
My approach is informed by mindfulness and cognitive based modalities including Acceptance Commitment Therapy and Compassion Focused Therapy. In practice this means opening up in a safe, judgement free zone where you can feel truly seen and heard. Your imagination guides us towards possibility and I help you commit to making it a reality.
A good relationship with your therapist is fundamental to your success in therapy, so let's chat before deciding to work together.
