Therapy is a deeply personal journey rooted in connection and the stories we tell about ourselves, our relationships, and our experiences. So, what’s your story? I strive to foster an environment where you can explore the many stories that make you unique. To me, that environment should be a space of inclusion, connection, and safety that is warm, non-judgmental, and empathetic. As a therapist, I see great value in offering gentleness, humour, and humbleness, because I believe these qualities ensure that clients have autonomy and that a therapeutic conversation is empowering.

Together, we'll not only understand any challenges you may be facing but also work towards developing coping mechanisms and fostering resilience. Whether you're striving for self-discovery, seeking personal growth, or navigating life transitions, I provide compassionate guidance, a safe space, and practical support to help you on this empowering path.
