I work with people going through stages of life. These stages are not linear & everyone experiences them differently. Some stages of life I have worked with:
Death & loss, trauma processing
Connecting to spirituality
Relational transitions
Chronic illness: diagnosis/maintenance
Sexual & gender identity discovery/transition
Disability advocacy/accommodation
Neurodiversity: Exploration/Advocacy
People come to me to expand their toolbox to manage & function independently during major life transitions. I encourage authenticity and self expression, helping clients find a deeper understanding of themselves & the world around them.
My style of therapy is an integrative approach, incorporating lived experiences to suit each client’s personal needs. Theories I use include: Art Therapy, Positive psychology, Acceptance & commitment therapy, Spiritual counseling.
Clients report that they are able to implement the changes they want to make in life, feeling fulfilled with self acceptance &
The world we live in moves faster than we would like; filled with change, loss, and moving forward. My approach as a therapist is rooted in the belief that everyone has a different life story to explore, and that everyone is capable of change for the better.
