I believe that therapy works best when it’s a true partnership between us. That’s why I make it a priority to regularly check in with you about how things are going, making sure that our work together stays aligned with your needs and evolves as you do. I actively incorporate client feedback into our work together, ensuring that the therapeutic process is in alignment. I want you to feel heard, understood, and empowered every step of the way. Together, we’ll build a supportive, collaborative relationship that helps you make real, lasting progress.
My areas of expertise include anxiety, depression, stress and burnout, self-esteem, self-harm, ADHD, trauma, grief and loss, and separation and divorce. I take an integrative approach to therapy, drawing on Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Solution-Focused Therapy (SFT), Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT), and Hypnosis.
I aim to create a safe and supportive environment where you can explore your concerns, build coping strategies, and develop insights into your emotional and psychological wellbeing. My goal is to help you develop resilience, improve your mental health, and work towards creating lasting positive change in your life.
