Whether therapy is new to you, or you consider yourself a regular, making the choice to reach out for guidance from a qualified therapist can feel like lots of things, including nerve-wracking, uneasy, exciting, hopeful, or even scary. Maybe you've been struggling with anxiety, depression, or both. Maybe you've been doing battle with an inner critic. Maybe you find yourself behaving in ways that don't fit with who you want to be in your relationships. We're not meant to navigate these things on our own. So here you are, making a brave move. Good on you. I don't take your trust for granted.
I believe in therapy because I've experienced and witnessed how it works. I offer you practical coping tools, while helping you to better understand all of your parts (anxious parts, angry parts, numb parts, critical parts, etc). As your therapist, I don't tell you how to feel or think. I offer informed guidance to help you heal in the directions you need.
I take my work as a therapist seriously because I see a real need for the spaces of healing that it creates, but I don't take myself too seriously in terms of assuming the role of a stoic professional. I aim to make our sessions feel like a comfortable place for you to show up as yourself. Swearing and humour are allowed. I look forward to hearing from you.
