I'm an integrative, relational therapist who works with individuals navigating life transitions, relationship patterns, and the lingering impact of childhood and family dynamics. Many of my clients look like they "have it together" on the outside — they're reponsible, capable, and independent. But inside, they feel overwhelmed, self-critical, or exhausted from holding everything together for everyone else.
Therapy with me offers a space where you don't need to be the "strong" one. A space where you can slow down, make sense of what's going underneath, and be met with attunement, warmth, and genuine care.
My work is relational, emotion-focused, and culturally responsive. I show up with presence and attunement, and together we move at your pace. I'm mostly non-directive, but I offer gentle guidance when needed.
Our therapeutic relationship becomes a place where you can safely explore parts of yourself that were ignored, dismissed, or shamed in the past.
Taking the first step into counselling can feel daunting, but you don’t have to do it alone. If you're looking for a space where you feel safe, heard, and understood, I would be glad to walk alongside you. Together, we can begin the process of making sense of your experiences and moving toward a future that feels more hopeful.
