My treatment modalities include Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Mindfulness, Attachment Theory and Systems Theory. I am also a Career Counsellor; I can support you in finding your career path.

I help you cope with anxiety and depression. I do this in stages. The first stage is to offer tools to regulate your emotions before they become unmanageable and lead to panic attacks or isolation. In the second stage I help you discover things about yourself that you are not fully aware of. With this self discovery, you will understand WHY you do what you do in life, HOW you became the person that you are today and HOW to transform certain aspects of yourself that no longer serve you to become the amazing person you were born to be.
