I believe therapy at its core is about connection, growth and transformation. I am passionate about creating a compassionate, honest and authentic space, to guide individuals in reconnecting with their authentic selves, and to live fuller, more meaningful lives. Through a non-pathologizing approach, I believe that all behavior has a function. The work of therapy is to delve deeper to understand the purpose of behaviours or patterns such as addiction, eating disorders, and chronic anxiety etc. We explore how they may play out in your life, and what is needed to feel supported towards growth, inner freedom, self compassion and change.
My specializations include trauma, eating disorders, body image, anxiety, and LGBTQIA+. Through a trauma-informed lens, I incorporate Internal Family Systems (IFS), Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT), Narrative Therapy, Life Process Transformation and alternative modalities to help clients experience healing in ways that enable longstanding change
I am more than happy to speak with you further about my approach. The benefits of working in this way often include; discovering one's inner strengths and qualities, deeply connecting with meaning and life, releasing patterns such as people pleasing, perfectionism, self doubt, self battling and cultivating inner stillness, self compassion, trust and joy.
