Living in survival mode is exhausting & I know it took a lot of energy to get here. I support folks looking for new ways to cope with distressing symptoms related to trauma, depression & anxiety. If you are struggling with anger, grief or major life transitions, this is not something you need to do alone & I can be with you while we bring understanding & compassion to what you're experiencing. I also offer Sex Therapy for individuals with concerns such as desire discrepancies, erectile dysfunction, pain, sexual trauma & understanding kink identity.
I tailor each session to your needs using an integrated approach. For trauma, my go-to treatment is EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization & Reprocessing) to process and alleviate trauma symptoms. I also draw from Internal Family Systems, Emotion Focused Therapy, Compassion Focused Therapy, Mindfulness and Cognitive Behavioural Therapy.
I approach therapy with curiosity and genuine interest in the person sitting in front of me. I hope to help you become more connected with your Self & body by tuning into what you need to feel safe, soothed and nourished. I'm also interested in exploratory work to help individuals bring clarity to origins of their distress, thoughts & behaviours.

Many of the clients I see come from families with untreated mental health conditions, addiction & chronic stress. Maybe you're here now to break that pattern. Growing up in these environments may have contributed to once effective, but now harmful ways of coping, relationship struggles & anxieties. Many clients realize they need to grieve, tune-in to their inner child & learn to have compassion.

Our first few sessions may bring up a lot of emotions, many of which you're used to avoiding. But I will help you get to know all these different parts of you, where they come from & what their needs are. For EMDR, most of my clients have experienced improvement in their symptoms, mood & daily functioning. This involved targeting specific traumatic memories and processing with rapid eye movement.
