Whether you are dealing with the emotional impact of a long-term illness or trying to make sense of complex family and identity dynamics, your experiences are unique.
I don't believe in a one-size-fits-all approach. Together, we will use practical,
mindfulness-based tools to help you manage daily stress and anxious thoughts. We
will also look at how your past experiences and relationships shape how you feel
today. This helps us heal deeper hurts, build self-compassion, and create lasting,
meaningful change.

Life's challenges can feel overwhelming and isolating, and when you're stuck in the same patterns, it's hard to see a way forward. This is a space where that changes.

The goal isn't just to cope, it's to genuinely understand yourself, replace what's holding you back with habits that actually nourish you, and reconnect with what brings you peace and fulfillment.

I understand how difficult it can be to navigate through daily life while experiencing stress, anxiety, or other challenges, especially when you feel the need to appear okay on the surface. I believe in creating a safe, warm, and nonjudgmental space where you can freely express yourself and feel heard. Together, we can explore these challenges and implement strategies to live your best life. As a Masters in Counselling student qualified to practice under supervision, I take a holistic approach to therapy by understanding clients as a whole rather than the symptoms they are experiencing.

I combine neurobiologically-informed modalities including somatic therapy, EMDR, mindfulness, IFS and trauma-informed CBT to help my clients integrate the pain of their past and move from stuckness to wellness.
Has "getting by" become a way of life? Are you feeling hijacked by anxiety, stuck in cyclical low mood, or simply overwhelmed in relationship dynamics? Toxic stress and trauma destabilize our nervous system and shake up our sense of safety and control. In therapy, we open the doorway to understanding and neutralizing the roots of your triggers. Trauma-informed therapy works to stabilize your brain and body so that surviving transforms into thriving. It empowers you to restore balance within... to become the architect of your mind... and to cultivate a resilient self, unburdened by the past or life's circumstances.

If you are feeling overwhelmed by major life changes, such as children leaving home, shifting roles, menopause, divorce, career uncertainty, or grief, you are not alone. These periods of transition can bring up big questions about who you are and what’s next. I believe that supportive relationships and a space to reflect are essential to help you find your footing again, and I would be honoured to hear your story and support you as you rediscover your strengths and move toward the life you hope for.

There are places in life that can feel stuck, tight, limiting, and hard to move through. That is often where therapy begins. Therapy can be a place to slow down, to gently notice where you feel blocked, and to begin reconnecting with your own sense of direction and possibility.

As a former physician, I have often been captivated by the complexities of human behaviour and the underlying mechanisms driving our actions and emotions. While I found medicine to be immensely rewarding, it was the psychological aspects of patient care that truly resonated with me. I became increasingly fascinated by the intricate connections between mind and body, and I recognized how addressing mental health issues could greatly enhance overall well-being. This realization led me to pursue a new direction: exploring the profound impact of mental health on our lives and supporting those struggling within this area.

Hi, I’m Carmelle. I believe everyone can benefit from the support of a mental health professional, and I would feel honoured for the opportunity to witness your journey of growth. Authenticity and empathy have guided my work as a therapist and social worker since 2017, particularly through my experience working with diverse and marginalized communities. Having transitioned to this field from the world of journalism, I see individuals as more than merely problems that need fixing—I want to ensure that you are the author of your own story. My priority is to create an environment where you feel comfortable and safe during our sessions.

Clients seeking my help have difficulty coping, and feel emotionally overloaded; but they are also ready for a change. Their distress can create anxiety and depression that results in negative thoughts, which influence your behavior and emotions. Avoiding unpleasant emotions can cause harm and inappropriate reactive behaviors. Emotional and psychological support for issues involving depression, anxiety, grief, addiction, relationship issues, self-improvement, are some of the stressors I work with. Through counselling we can focus on your needs and set goals that will ultimately give you tools to cope with life on life's terms.
