Over the past 26 years, part of my experience has included helping develop people in international high-performance organizations. Workplace dynamics can bring out the best and the worst in people, sometimes conjuring childhood traumas or overwhelming feelings of anxiety and insecurity which affect self-esteem and other aspects of personal life. Experience in these areas has led me to address the inter-connections between the triggers of anxiety that emerge in social or work settings and one’s early personal history, past experiences and relationships.

Low confidence, imposter syndrome or self-sabotage, for example, can manifest in behaviours such as workaholism and burnout or conversely procrastination and under-achievement. I’m familiar with these issues helping clients work through and overcome them.

Finding the courage to acknowledge you’re struggling can be one of the hardest parts of asking for help, but you’ve already taken the biggest step by seeking support. I see therapy as a collaborative process; one where we work together to explore what you might need, and what might help. I draw on a range of therapeutic tools and resources depending on the focus of our work, and I have particular experience supporting clients around nervous system regulation, trauma, neurodiversity, grief, anxiety, depression, relationships, identity, and life transitions.

I offer in person and remote therapy. I have over ten years of experience working in mental health and in supporting people to identify, better understand and work through any difficulties, challenges or points of ‘stuckness’ they may be experiencing in their lives. Therapy is often about exploring different perspectives and developing the skills and tools we need to help navigate life’s challenges to allow us to move forward. I am flexible and collaborative in my approach to therapy because, in my experience, therapy is most helpful to people when it is tailored to their specific needs and the hopes they may have for the process.

Clients come to me when they feel hopeless, misunderstood and stuck; they may be looking for a way to feel more connection and joy; they often know that life could and should be better for them, that their mental health could be stronger, but they just cannot get there on their own. I work well with clients who have experienced loss and those who are trying to find their place in a new life stage, as well as individuals who are impacted by shame and those seeking healing from past trauma. I have significant experience working with LGBTQ+ clients, people in non-traditional relationships and neuroatypical people.

If you are seeking counselling and psychotherapy, it may be because you are dealing with a specific issue or going through a particularly difficult phase for which you need support. You may have tried to resolve things by yourself but somehow, it didn’t quite work out. You may have found yourself in the all-too-familiar place of slipping back to your old patterns of thoughts, feeling and behaviors despite all the promises and repeated attempts at changing them. Or you may feel that we are doing OK, presenting to the world a well-functioning mask of personal efficiency or professional success, but deep feeling empty and alone.
