Do you find yourself stuck in patterns of people-pleasing, overthinking, reassurance-seeking, or struggling to set healthy boundaries? These challenges can leave you feeling overwhelmed, disconnected, and uncertain about what comes next. I work from an attachment-based approach, and aim to understand how past experiences shape the present. Together, we’ll build deeper self-awareness, strengthen your sense of self to create lasting healing. While you cannot rewrite your story, I will help you take control of your next chapter by reframing adversity into opportunities for growth.
I help individuals navigate interpersonal trauma, and life transitions, including anxiety, depression, aggression, ADHD, and autism. Using numerous theraputic modalities including Narrative, Somatic, and DBT approaches, I help clients reconstruct patterns of behaviour and develop practical tools. Faith-based support is offered when aligned with your values.
If you envision a life filled with hope and meaning but are unsure of how to break old patterns that are no longer serving you, our sessions can provide a space for self-discovery and form the foundation of meaningful change in your life. I will help you take control of the things you can change, and learn to accept what you cannot.
