Registered Psychotherapist (Qualifying), RP(Q), MA
Verified
I work from holistic perspective and incorporate
Mindfulness
, Solution Focused Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, ACT and more.
We all have our own stories and experiences that contribute to who we are and how we face challenges. Sometimes, we get so lost in the difficulties of the outside world that we forget to take care of our inner self. This can lead to us struggling with things such as anxiety, depression, low self-esteem, identity-based oppression, stress management, relationship concerns, immigrant struggles, and life changes. I understand how challenging these difficulties can be, and I am passionate about helping others move from fighting with their feelings to reaching their own inner peace.

From this fertile soil,
mindfulness
, direction and growth emerge.
The past two years have been intense. People are seeking support in how to handle conflict and uncertainty and to navigate change. To see with a new perspective and to explore different options. Imagine... a space where external distractions have been minimized so you can heal, go within and listen to what needs to be heard. Is this an experience you need? I am here to support you as you navigate change, growth and heal old wounds. This will result in clarity and conscious creation. " Your task is not to seek for love (or insert your word), but merely to seek and find all the barriers within yourself that you have built against it."

And your chest clenched for attention. Skin crawling desperation. To call in sick, or to stay in bed, or to numb out with distractions that you do not feel proud of. Maybe you feel nausea or fear or shame, or an emptiness that aches inside you. Or anxiety that rarely seems to settle. Maybe you have repetitive or consuming thoughts of how incompetent or unworthy you are. Maybe you just feel simply exhausted. People come to see me to move away from feelings of overwhelm, to begin to know and trust themselves (and others) again, to begin to feel better in their lives (as they define it).

We can explore using existential, compassionate/wisdom focused and
mindfulness
tools.
Overwhelmed? Alone? Stuck ? Are you experiencing a transition in your life that seems unbearable? Are you feeling angst and anxiety that has overtaken your daily schedule? My approach is client centered, warm and non judgmental. I feel it is important to create a safe space for all individuals. I think addressing the whole individual (mind, body, and soul) is imperative to healing. For those who prefer, I am willing to discuss existential questions like “Who am I?, What is my life’s purpose?, What is my mission in life?” While sitting with me we can explore your connection with a Higher Power(God, Mother Earth, The Universe etc.)

We are all on a path of healing and discovery that leads, eventually and inevitably, to the realization of our true potential. I see psychotherapy as a powerful companion on this journey - it is a helpful friend that can help ease the burden during dark times, and it is a ray of light that can guide us more quickly beyond our own limitations when we are moving towards a goal.
