My therapeutic counselling approach is integrative, combining evidence-based psychotherapeutic modalities (such as Person-Centered, CBT, and Narrative Therapy) with somatic and body-oriented interventions. Rooted in my advanced training in somatic yoga therapy, these body-based tools are applied therapeutically to address nervous system dysregulation, dissociation, and trauma stored in the body, always anchored by a strong relational therapeutic alliance.
Through empathic, non-judgemental listening and a genuine interest in my clients' journeys, I offer a grounded and supportive space where they can reflect, gain clarity, and find alignment.
Reaching out and asking for help is a brave first step, and you don’t have to navigate this path alone. Book a discovery call today, and learn the ways I can support your journey.
