Liminal Psychotherapist. I focus on the unique threshold moments in life—those times when you find yourself between phases, not quite finished with one chapter and not yet fully immersed in the next. These transitional periods often bring about feelings of uncertainty, muddled emotions, and spiralling thoughts. Whether your transition is large or small, seeking clarity and support during these times is both courageous and important.
We will work together to establish a safe space where you can freely unpack and explore your tangled thoughts and emotions and look at your experiences with fresh eyes. I incorporate creative experiences to explore parts that are too heavy for words. Together we can create new ways of being, new patterns of seeing.
Choosing to seek therapy is a brave and meaningful step. I understand the importance of finding a therapist who can be both supportive and appropriately challenging. To help you determine if I am the right fit for you, I offer free video or phone consultations. Sessions are available in person and online. Please email me to see if I am the right fit for you.
