Do you feel weighed down by everyone else’s needs while your own quietly slip away? Are you constantly thinking, overthinking, wondering if you did something wrong, or worrying about what might happen next? Do you fear being left alone, no matter how much you try to please those around you? You may keep everything inside, afraid of judgment or of seeming weak, and minimize your feelings because others seem to have bigger problems. But just because someone else’s struggles seem greater doesn’t mean your feelings aren't valid or that you don’t deserve support. I use a psychodynamic lens to help you heal and understand your patterns.
I’m especially passionate about supporting people through fertility & postpartum challenges. These experiences can bring grief, guilt, fear or isolation that often go unseen. I want you to know that you don’t have to carry them alone. I offer a space where your pain, confusion, & hope can coexist, where you can feel heard, grounded, and supported in healing.
As a Registered Psychotherapist (Qualifying) and MA in Counselling Psychology student under clinical supervision, I offer a space to honour your needs with courage & compassion. If you’re ready to start prioritizing yourself, I invite you to book a free 30-minute consultation to help you get a feel for what our work together could look like.
