Do you suffer from overwhelming emotions, depression, or anxiety? Are you feeling adrift or disconnected in your relationships? I bring an open curiosity to your experiences – whatever those may be – and, working together, we can uncover and navigate the internal and external obstacles you face. My goal as your therapist is to create a genuine, empathetic relationship between you and I, through which healing and change can take place. I also see individuals as embedded in broader social contexts that shape how we think, feel, and behave, and which may be implicated in psychological and interpersonal problems.
The approach I take is an integrative one and I draw upon person-centred, emotionally-focused, psychodynamic, CBT, ACT, and mindfulness techniques. I appreciate that no two individuals have the same set of experiences and will work with you to create the kind of therapy that works best for you.
I have experience with youth and adults experiencing crisis and navigating an array of concerns, including anxiety, stress, depression, abuse, grief, and suicidality. I also have an academic background in critical sociology and am passionate about offering a safe space for BIPOC and 2SLGBTQ+ folks.
