Let's Connect (249) 493-7421

My clients want to feel more comfortable in their own skin. Something has shaken their ability to connect to themselves, and we work together in a strengths-based way to allow them to trust their own judgement, and find ways to feel comfort in their lives. This might look like wanting to decrease anxiety, work with trauma triggers, or increase emotional regulation strategies to give them more control over their experience in life.

I emphasize emotional awareness with my clients, once we know how we feel, then we can know what we need. From there, how do you get what you need? We can talk practical skills, or introspective skills for managing life's challenges. I offer a neutral space where you can say whatever and not be judged. I help folks learn to trust their own abilities.

The hardest step towards change is the first one. I offer my clients a supportive, non-judgmental space for honest, direct discussion about their concerns. I firmly believe we already have everything we need, sometimes it just needs to be unburied. I have two shovels waiting, all you have to do is ask. Send me an email if you'd like to start.

The main topics I've work with people on are anxiety, trauma, burnout, and ADHD/Autism. Sessions are collaborative, and depend on your individual challenges and experience. People experience mental health issues differently, so we'll start on whichever piece feels most distressing, and go from there. We'll check in every few sessions to ensure it feels effective to you and our goals match.

Trauma Informed

I focus on actionable therapy styles like CBT and DBT that give the client something to try for themselves when they are faced with the concerning issue at home. In trauma counselling, I use internal family systems because I think it helps us accept all parts of ourselves, and a somatic backdrop, focusing on regulating the nervous system.
