Have you been doing the work but feel stuck with little progress or change? Are you burnt out, overly anxious, and critical of yourself? Find that your grief has grown so heavy that you don’t know what else to do? Perhaps you're disconnected from your emotions or overwhelmed by your feelings? Welcome and hello! I’m Heather and you’ve come to the right place.
I use evidence based approaches that inspire a different way of being and relating in the world that support you in your endeavours rather than feeling like you’re working against yourself. My approach isn’t only talking - it’s about acting and practicing after sessions. You will gain understanding and skills to create the change you’re looking for.
I use my knowledge and applied experiences to connect with you through humour, compassion, and direction. I enjoy using visual elements and homework to break down concepts and to build skills and strengths. Having a good fit is imperative: email me to book a free 15-minute consult! Please check your spam as my email responses can end up there!

Our sessions begin by understanding your concerns through the lenses of our lived experiences and brain's evolutionary mechanisms. With this, we gain clarity into how we think, feel, and act, allowing us to accept what is within and outside of our control and discover where we can create change. From there, we develop skills to create a fulfilling and meaningful life.
