Struggling with feelings of pressure, anxiety, stress, loss, or conflict in important relationships can feel very isolating, lonely, and hopeless. You may begin to feel stuck, or turn to unhelpful ways of dealing with unwanted stress or emotions. More often than not, this takes a toll on your health, mood, relationships, and overall functioning. I support those going through pet loss and anxiety, life transitions, general anxiety, depression, burnout and stress, addictions and co-dependency, as well as difficulties with emotional processing, boundaries, and communication. I want you to know that you are not alone - I can help.
My mission is to support clients in overcoming challenges that keep them stuck and miserable, and help them achieve the life they want and deserve to live. With a compassionate, strength-based and culturally sensitive approach centred around the unique needs of each individual, I first and foremost value the relationship built with each client.
Finding the right support is crucial to achieving your goals. I rely on a foundation of experience, evidence-based strategies and personally tailored treatment plans to support you in promoting meaningful, lasting change, personal growth and fulfillment. Book a free consultation and let's take the first step together.
