Looking for couples, parent, or individual counselling? I am a Registered Clinical Counsellor (RCC) specialized in supporting couples to enhance communication and mutual understanding, and empowering parents to strengthen relationships with their teens. I also support individuals (16+) to manage and overcome anxiety and depression through practical skills and tangible strategies backed by neuroscience. I draw from trauma-informed, attachment-based, and solution-focused approaches to understand and collaboratively support your unique needs, contexts, and goals. I look forward to hearing from you.
With couples, my evidence-based attachment-focused approach draws on my formal training in both Emotionally Focused Couples Therapy and the Gottman Method to overcome patterns of disconnection and enrich communication. With parents of teens, I am also guided by Interpersonal Neurobiology and Emotionally Focused Family Therapy.
Overall, I work from a solution-focused and strengths-based approach to highlight clients’ inner resources for repairing and resolving current issues faced by couples, parents, and adults. Feel free to book in via Jane App for a free 15 minute consult (see Website section) to discuss how I can sustainably support you in reaching your needs and goals.
