Therapists in M4W

In my years of practice, my focus has been centred around individuals from different walks of life (i.e race, religion, gender, sexual orientation etc). Particularly, ones who have trauma, body image issues, low self esteem, fibromyalgia, phobias and/or are anxious, depressed, stressed, destructive, angry, lonely, abused and in or have been in the child welfare system. In regards to my approach, I am genuine and compassionate, but remain equally honest and direct. Rather than bombarding clients with endless questions, I aim to engage them through meaningful methods and effective interventions.

I help anxious, depressed, traumatized, overwhelmed, highly sensitive and neurodivergent people to find a grounding and calm in their body-mind. We explore creative ways of being, with a focus on the here and now. I walk besides you as we discover your self-support and build resilience to difficulties. I support you in freeing yourself of your freezing, fight or fight responses and help you to build better relationships with better boundaries, creating more flexibility and spontaneous moments of joy in your life,

As a psychologist, my goal is to support my clients to deepen self-understanding and awareness while calming and alleviating present distress. I welcome working with adult individuals and couples from all racial, religious, cultural, gender identity, and sexual orientation backgrounds.

You deserve a compassionate space to effectively pinpoint the emotional pain that you've so effectively hidden away. Together, we will work together to build up your coping and resilience.
