About
It is common for individuals to feel stuck in their suffering. Recurring issues take up space within the mind & body, making it difficult to live in the present & within one’s full potential. I use an integrative, trauma-informed & strengths-based approach to build therapeutic relationships rooted in connection, compassion & empathy to help transform this suffering into deep healing. I use a variety of therapeutic techniques including mindfulness, visualization & relaxation to help clients process their experiences & unresolved trauma & to help regulate their emotions in a healthy way.
Together my clients & I explore their life’s narrative, identify & transform unhelpful patterns & coping, & process difficult past & present-day challenges. We work collaboratively to identify strategies to foster a healthy relationship to self & others & to promote overall wellbeing in a way that makes clients feel safe, heard & supported.
I have experience in supporting a variety of mental health challenges such as anxiety & depression, with a specific focus in coping with cancer, life threatening illness & chronic illness, caregiver support, grief & bereavement, low self-esteem & abandonment. I would be honoured to support you through this healing and transformative process.
