Welcome! Whether you are looking for a shorter-term approach to resolve current difficulties and get back to enjoying the things that matter most to you, or hoping to spend more time understanding the origin of these challenges and addressing long-standing patterns and stories that may be causing distress in your relationships, I would be happy to provide guidance and support to help you reach your goals. I work collaboratively with individuals dealing with a range of challenges, like anxiety/stress, ADHD, low mood/self-esteem, trauma, difficulties in work/relationships, as well as intrusive thoughts and compulsive behaviours.
My approach is collaborative, trauma- and attachment-focused, drawing from approaches like schema therapy, ACT, CBT, and mindfulness. I integrate practical skills as well as experiential strategies to address your concerns holistically. I also have specialized training in exposure response prevention (ERP), the gold standard treatment for OCD.
In therapy, we can work as a team to address past and present struggles while exploring what matters most to you, helping you build a life that feels satisfying and authentic. It’s common to feel nervous or uncertain when reaching out for therapy; it would be my pleasure to hear from you and answer any questions you have about the process or my approach.

Broadly speaking, my approach explores how your thoughts and beliefs, influenced by early life experiences, affect how you feel and act. Schema-focused therapy addresses the deeper roots of symptoms, while approaches like CBT and ACT lend hands-on strategies to address how you relate to your experiences. For OCD, I incorporate ERP to target tricky intrusive thoughts and rituals.
