I'm here to support anyone struggling with life's various challenges. Coming from a highly mobile education industry and music-focused background, I endeavour to provide reflection through various lenses - with a combination of self-exploration and creativity. If you are looking for someone who is open and eclectic in their approach, while maintaining a focus on your development, we could be a wonderful fit!
I offer warm support with a deep level of critical thinking and reflection as cornerstones to practice. The primary therapeutic approaches revolve around domains in Narrative, Gestalt, Internal Family Systems, Existential, Humanistic, Psychodynamic, Somatic, and Music-Integrated therapy - with client preference of approach as a focal point.
Ultimately, I am here to listen and sit with you as we focus together on life's challenges. If you are open to exploring the patterns of your life in search of something more fulfilling, while also managing current presenting issues, feel free to reach out.
