About
I help clients heal through connection. I believe that most of our emotional struggles stem from some sort of disconnection: to our bodies, our feelings, our desires, our roots, our people, or that "something more" in life. There is an overwhelming amount of evidence that we are healthier & more functional when we feel we are genuinely seen, felt, heard, and understood. And it's my goal to bring this kind of space to therapy.
My own journey through anxiety, depression, and complicated family dynamics has allowed me to appreciate how challenging life can be. Healing can be frustrating, messy, but always it is possible. We are always much more wise & brave than we give ourselves credit for.
My approach is warm and focused. My methods are trauma-informed, body-based, and family systems oriented (i.e. who did you become in the family you grew up in?). I also focus on emotional regulation & interpersonal behaviour. Visit my website contextcounsellinghere.com to learn more!
