You may already understand your patterns. You can explain why you react the way you do, but insight hasn’t changed the cycle. In relationships, anxiety, self-criticism, or habits, the same reactions keep repeating. Therapy can help you work directly with the deeper patterns underneath those cycles. I work primarily from an Internal Family Systems (IFS) lens. IFS understands the mind as made up of different parts—one that wants to stop drinking, another that reaches for the bottle; one that craves connection, another that shuts people out.
These parts aren’t contradictions. They’re adaptations that developed to help you navigate life. In therapy, we approach them with curiosity and care so they can shift into healthier roles and work together in a way that supports your well-being.
I work with people navigating anxiety, addiction, relationship struggles, self-criticism, and identity questions. If you’re feeling stuck, therapy can help you move beyond analysis and into real emotional change. If this approach resonates with you, feel free to reach out to book a consultation.

I practice an integrative style of therapy; mostly focused on IFS but I also draw from CBT and Neurobiology (including Attachment-based theory). In your first session, it is likely easiest if we start with a behaviour of yours that you are uncomfortable with (ex. criticising yourself or drinking or shutting down when you think about starting a task) but we can also start with a mood (ex. anxious)
