My ideal client is thoughtful, self-aware, and tired of surface-level work. A sense of dark humour is a bonus. They may have complex trauma, multiple diagnoses, justice involvement, or a history of difficult relationships. Many worry they are “too much” or that therapy hasn’t worked before. They want clarity, emotional regulation, accountability, and real change — not just venting. They are ready to examine patterns, build skills, and understand the “why” behind their reactions so they can move differently in the world. If swearing bugs you, we may not be a good fit.
I offer structured, skills-based therapy grounded in DBT, CBT, CBT-I, ACT, Narrative Therapy and TIR. I specialize in complex cases, trauma, justice involvement, and high-conflict dynamics. Sessions are direct, practical, and collaborative, focused on insight, regulation, and measurable progress.
If you’ve felt misunderstood, overwhelmed, or frustrated by therapy in the past, you’re not alone. Change is possible with the right fit and approach. If you’re ready for honest conversations, real tools, and meaningful growth, I invite you to reach out.
