Models I draw from include: Solution-Focused Therapy, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, and
Acceptance
and Commitment Therapy.
Is your chronic illness holding you back? Please know that you are worthy of living a fulfilling life. You are so much more than your illness. It can be challenging to carry on day to day. People around you may not understand just how much planning it takes to simply function when you are constantly low on energy, or how much effort you put in every single day to show up for yourself and others in spite of the pain. I see you, and I am here for you.

In my practice, this means being genuine, empathic, and showing
acceptance
and support.
Most of us have felt stuck - as though we are simply getting by doing the things we've always done. Usually those behaviours - thoughts, feelings, and actions - developed because, at some point in our lives, they were useful! They helped us to survive situations that seemed unconquerable at the time. Now these same behaviours may lead to isolation, emptiness, worry, or avoidance, and we feel uncertain how to change them. Having an opportunity to observe those behaviours, without judgement, can help us understand what we want out of life, and can lead us towards a sense of fulfillment and meaning.

ACT
and EFT help you have a positive sense of self by learning to correct and balance the emotions that are important for you and your relationships.
It is all about distorted thoughts and emotions about yourself causing low self-esteem. All you need to do is to love yourself and make peace with your true self. Then you will learn to correct and balance your emotions. My role is to help you explore your strengths and resources with compassion and empathy in order for you to get out of the place you are stuck. This will lead you to a more meaningful and purposeful life where you have healthy relationships with yourself and others.

I have experience supporting LGBQ, Trans, and Nonbinary adults and youth and their family members, members of the LGBTQ community who have struggled with navigating identity and spirituality, and anyone who struggles with constant negative self-talk. If you have some goals in mind to work toward, feel free to reach out. I can offer a consultation and give you some time to decide whether you feel we would be a good fit to work together.

Registered Social Worker, MSW, RSW
Verified
My therapeutic approach is eclectic; I use theories and techniques taken from
Acceptance
and Commitment Therapy, Dialectical Behavioural Therapy, Self Compassion, Attachment theory, and Polyvagal theory.
Your story matters and you deserve a safe space to share it. At some point most of us will experience something that moves us away from who we want to be. This experience can make it difficult to connect with others and live a full, meaningful life. I work with people to help them understand their experiences and how they moved away from what is most important to them. I also help them to identify what would move them closer to who they want to be. I use my skills and training to support people challenged by: anxiety, depression, attachment trauma, stressful life events, relationships problems, and life transitions.

I am trained in
Acceptance
and commitment (
ACT
), Cognitive behavioural(CBT), Narrative and Emotion-focused therapy(EFT), and have worked with a wide range of individuals.
As human beings we may feel lost/stuck due to painful or challenging life experiences. This can impact our ability to live our lives fully. I am passionate about working with individuals who have concerns around stress, anxiety, depression, self-esteem, trauma, relationships, grief, and life transitions/work-life balance. Support may look different for each person, while some may want to focus on building coping strategies, others may seek a deeper healing process. One of our first steps will be building awareness of your needs, the change you want in your life and identifying your goals to make this change possible.

To better support you, I draw on eclectic therapeutic approaches including EMDR,
ACT
, DBT-informed, Narrative Therapy, among others.
Our brain and body can protect us from danger, but when the pain becomes too much for us to handle, we can often feel stuck and unable to move forward. When we are struggling more than we can cope, it is easy to feel isolated, powerless, and hopeless. You don’t have to do it alone. I will hold and provide a safe space for you, and together, we will honour all parts of you and determine your unique path to healing. While healing looks different for everybody, it is my goal to assist you in embracing your true self.

. If you are ready for change I would be honoured to support you through your personal growth.

Shifting from living according to others'
acceptance
, fear of judgement, expectations and norms; to becoming more present, genuine, directly honest, spontaneous, loving and creative.
Many of us seek help due to feeling unhappy, conflicted, dissatisfied, anxious and overwhelmed with life. We are often blocked creatively and/or emotionally, and are going through the motions of living with ineffective coping strategies. We cannot stop the mind chatter enough to fall asleep or relax. Feelings of emptiness, loneliness and alienation might overwhelm us. We search for ways to escape this construct we live in, but tend to fall back into repetitive, stuck patterns. Our distress and overwhelming emotions are a wake up call to alter how we function and choices we make in our life.

I am trained in
Acceptance
and Commitment Therapy and have completed level 2 training in Gottman Method Couples Therapy.
When we aren't feeling like the best version of ourselves, it's tough to engage in our lives in the way we would like to; our daily stress adds up and pulls us away from the things that are important to us. Whether little things in your life are piling up and becoming overwhelming or you are in the midst of a major life transition, accessing support is an important first step to living a value-driven life. Sometimes we are feeling alright, but we aren't where we want to be. Having dedicated time and space to process our thoughts with an unbiased listener can build the insight we need to thrive.

acceptance
and self confidence!

Acceptance and Commitment (ACT) Counsellors
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) is a type of psychotherapy that helps you accept the difficulties that come with life. ACT is a form of mindfulness based therapy, theorizing that greater well-being can be attained by overcoming negative thoughts and feelings. Essentially, ACT looks at your character traits and behaviours to assist you in reducing avoidant coping styles. ACT also addresses your commitment to making changes, and what to do about it when you can't stick to your goals.
If you're looking for ACT therapy in London or for a London ACT counsellor these professionals provide acceptance and commitment therapy, ACT group therapy, ACT therapy, and acceptance commitment therapy. They include ACT therapists, ACT psychologists, ACT psychotherapists and ACT counsellors.
