My counselling approach is holistic, collaborative, curious, accepting, and non-judgmental—always tailored to the unique needs of each individual. I deeply believe in the power of the therapeutic relationship as the foundation for healing and growth. Through connection, empathy, validation, empowerment, and active listening, I strive to create a safe and supportive space where clients can explore their experiences, tap into their inner strengths, build resilience, and foster lasting, meaningful change. With compassion and mindful guidance, I support and gently challenge clients to grow through insight, confidence, and resilience.
I support individuals, couples, and families with trauma, life transitions, anxiety, depression, ADHD, BPD, abuse, addiction, grief and loss, parenting, health diagnosis, life changes, self-esteem, and relationships. I empower clients to build on their strengths. Sliding scale available. LGBTQ+ friendly, affirming, and an ally.
I sincerely welcome the opportunity to see if we're a good fit. I offer a free 15-minute consult by phone or video. Feel free to reach out—taking this first step can be the hardest, and you're not alone.
