I work empathically with my clients. Sessions are completely confidential. I work very well with clients who suffer from anxiety and depression. My speciality is my inner child work. This is a very powerful therapy. I can bring the client back in a safe way to a traumatic experience. Sometimes, I will combine this therapy with music. The client may experience the trauma through feelings in the body, this therapy answers for the client why they feel the way they do in their body. By unlocking those feelings healing may begin. It can help a client to become more confident and as a result they begin to uncover their true self's.

Life can be a struggle, but you do not need to be alone in it - Attending therapy in the past helped me understand myself and what I wanted and needed out of life.
Are you feeling overwhelmed, stressed and unable to focus? Feeling worried, struggling with the world today. Recovery is possible - I use Trauma Informed Care, EMDR and Internal Family Systems (IFS). I focus on working with clients struggling with Anxiety, Stress, Depression, Trauma and Unresolved Childhood Issues. When I first meet with a client, we discuss what has brought them to therapy. With this information we discuss how we will work with together. The first session with any new client is to assess if we can work together and if the client feels comfortable with continuing the therapeutic process.

In our work together, the focus is on understanding what’s going on for you and what would need to change for life to feel how you want it to.
People often come to see me because they’re struggling in their relationships, dealing with anxiety or low mood, feeling stuck or dissatisfied, or finding it hard to make decisions or set boundaries.
I regularly work with people who describe difficulty saying no, 'people pleasing', worrying about being 'too much' or 'not enough,' feeling invisible or resentful (but not saying anything about it), or replaying interactions and criticising themselves afterwards.

I'm here to give you tools and resources to help you live better. As a licensed therapist, my job is to provide 2 services: Help you resolve an immediate problem, e.g., a relationship break-up or a life transition - such as becoming an expat. The second service - sometimes the more important service - is to help you learn how, what to do and why this challenge was presented to you. My job is to work myself out of a job because I helped you improve your like skill level and increased your knowledge of yourself.

What can I expect from life coaching?
Clients and coaches will typically start by identifying the problem area(s) that the client hopes to address—then, the coach will help the client brainstorm potential solutions and explore concrete techniques to help the client attain their goals. Coaching is typically short-term and focused on finding solutions in the here and now, rather than exploring a client’s past. In addition to strategies aimed at the client’s specific concerns, coaches may encourage general stress management techniques such as meditation.
Can a life coach help treat anxiety?
Because the majority of life coaches are not licensed clinicians, they are not qualified to diagnose or treat anxiety. Anyone struggling with anxiety or another mental health condition should seek help from a licensed mental health practitioner. However, some coaching clients who struggle with subclinical anxiety report that working with their coach on other problems—such as career dissatisfaction or unhealthy habits—has a positive effect on their anxiety.
Can life coaching be done online?
Yes. While life coaching often happens in person, many coaches conduct sessions over the phone or via online platforms such as Zoom or Skype. Because life coaches are not subject to local licensing regulations in the same way that therapists are, they are able to see clients who live in other locations.
How long does life coaching last?
Life coaching tends to be a shorter-term process than therapy, though it does not always unfold over a specific period of time and is instead based on the coach’s or the client’s preferences. Coaching often takes place over three to 12 months but may be shorter or longer if necessary.
