Life can feel hard sometimes & the world right now can certainly make it feel harder. Reaching out for support for yourself is an act of self compassion. I'm glad you're here. Welcome. My approach interweaves neurobiology, body based (somatic) interventions and Expressive Arts Therapy, as well as ‘talk therapy’. I use a resilience and trauma informed lens. No creative/ artistic experience necessary, only curiosity. I work creatively and compassionately with people in many stages of life and periods of change- including early adulthood, parenting (and preparing to parent), career, health/illness, separation, loss & grief.
I often see people who are ready for change and want to healing from old patterns and experiences, including intergenerational patterns. In addition to supporting clients' healing from past experiences, I specialize in supporting professionals and adults with ADHD to thrive, while also re-connecting with self-compassion throughout the many phases of life.
I honour stories and behaviours ancestors developed for survival, while supporting cycle breaking & thriving. I am an Expressive Arts Therapist and Registered Social Worker (RSW) (10+yrs) & I have 20+ years of experience in and supporting the LGBTTQ2SIA+/Spectrum community through advocacy and mental health support. Pls use EMAIL button to connect. Tks!
