I work with teens and adults, individuals and couples. I have experience and I am happy working with a broad range of concerns and experiences. If you are working through difficult emotional experiences like anxiety or depression; trying to make sense of adverse childhood experiences; learning to cope with trauma, grief, or loss; learning to navigate a new diagnosis; working through a difficult transition or a new stage in life like parenting; wanting to improve your communication and relationships; or looking for a way to bring balance and wellbeing to your life I'd love to be of use to you.
I am familiar in a number of modalities including CBT, DBT, ACT, Solution-Focused, Somatic approaches, Person-Centred, Single Session, EMDR, Emotion Focused Family Therapy, and Polyvagal theory. I believe counselling to be a collaborative act. I bring my experience and expertise in counselling and you bring your experience and expertise in who you are.
I'm interested in being of use to you. We can work together to improve what is and work toward something that feels good.
