Pacific Blue Cross Therapists in St John's, NL
I work with youth and adults who feel weighed down by anxiety, stress, trauma, or grief and want something deeper than coping, that is genuine healing. My clients appreciate therapy that blends mindfulness and modern psychology, offering space to slow down and find balance. Having worked across Europe, Asia, and North America, I bring a multicultural perspective that can be particularly valuable for racial minorities and newcomers. Sessions are calm, and tailored to what matters most to you. Together we explore old patterns, discover emotional resilience, and help you reconnect with a sense of steadiness and peace in everyday life.

The Centre for Psychodynamic Insights is a virtual clinic specializing in psychodynamic psychotherapy. This approach explores the root causes of symptoms by uncovering and understanding underlying emotions through evidence-based treatment. Through collaborative dialogue, we examine unconscious thoughts and emotions shaped from childhood to the present. We work to relieve symptoms by understanding how these patterns affect current experiences, and create targeted strategies for meaningful change long-term.

We’re often told to “be kinder to ourselves,” “worry less,” or “communicate better.” And many of us do understand why we are the way we are. We have insight, self-awareness, and plenty of knowledge about what we “should” be doing. Yet somehow, that knowing doesn’t always translate into real change—whether in how we treat ourselves, how we show up in relationships, or how we move forward in the areas of life that matter most.

I offer support to adolescents, young adults, and adults who are feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or disconnected, whether due to trauma, anxiety, depression, major life changes, or ongoing stress. I aim to provide a supportive, non-judgmental space where you can make sense of your experiences, understand your emotional responses, and develop skills that are useful in everyday life. Common goals can include improving emotional regulation, self-awareness, communication skills, resilience, stress management, and overall well-being.

Feel like you've lost yourself in a confusing, emotionally draining relationship? Do you second-guess your decisions, question reality, or feel disconnected from who you once were? Many women appear successful and strong on the outside while privately struggling with anxiety, self-doubt, and emotional exhaustion. I help women heal from Intimate Partner Violence (IPV), narcissistic abuse, and emotional trauma by rebuilding identity, confidence, emotional safety, and Inner Authority so they can move forward with clarity, strength, and freedom. Your first 60-min session is complimentary if we decide we are a good fit to work together.
