Do you feel stuck in a rut? Going through a critical life transition? I offer you an open, warm and supportive environment, including non-judgmental empathy and deep listening, to explore whatever may be causing you difficulty.
I practice primarily within a client-centered, humanistic and psychodynamic framework, integrating tools from other therapeutic approaches based on individual needs. I will guide you in developing self-awareness to break free from unhelpful thought or behaviour patterns and cultivate focus, self-acceptance, and hope.
My approach is inclusive and compassionate. I welcome clients of all backgrounds, religions, sexual orientations, and gender identities, and care deeply about meeting you exactly 'where you are'. Let's talk about how I might be able to help.

I believe strongly in the transformative potential of the therapeutic process. I begin by working to establish trust between us and focusing on the key challenges that have brought you to therapy. As our sessions progress, you should feel a sense of being recognized, understood and heard. We'll identify strategies that will allow you to build a stronger sense of self and control over your life.
