Life is can be difficult at times. I believe that the way we think, feel, and act impacts our ability to view any situation clearly. The way we talk about ourselves, to ourselves, and to others also plays a role in navigating life's many challenges. I hope to come alongside you to support, encourage, and advocate for you by standing in the gap and be a constant in your storm.

If you’ve been feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or disconnected—from yourself, your relationships, or the pace of life—you’re not alone. Many of the clients I work with are adolescents, adults, and families who feel anxious, overwhelmed, or stuck despite trying to “think their way through” their struggles. Many experience stress in their bodies—racing thoughts, tension, shutdown, or emotional reactivity. My approach helps clients understand and regulate their nervous system, process underlying stress or trauma, and reconnect with a sense of calm, control, and clarity so they can move forward with confidence.

I also have extensive training in Dialectical Behavior Therapy and am comfortable working with those who experience suicidal ideation and self-harming behaviors.
Being a teenager and a young-adult in a post-pandemic world is hard. Add in anxiety, up and down moods, problems with focus and prioritizing, or relationship conflicts and it can feel overwhelming, impossible, and like things will never get better. Not only do we have typical day-to-day concerns like figuring out who we are and what we want to be, but we may be struggling with perfectionism, communicating, taking things personally, making friends, or getting along better with our parents. The loneliness of feeling misunderstood and not knowing what to do is crippling.

How does therapy for self-harm work?
A person may turn to self-injury so that they can distract themselves from their stress, depression, anxiety, or upsetting circumstances. Therapy can address the cause of an individual’s suffering. A therapist can help a person understand why they may want to self-harm and help the person learn new methods of coping. A person may have poor emotion regulation, and treatment such as cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) is helpful for breaking this behaviour. In addition, treatment such as dialectical behavior therapy can help a person manage their tolerance of distress.
Which therapies are best for self-harm?
Specific approaches used by professionals include cognitive behavioral, dialectical behavior, psychodynamic, and mentalisation-based therapies, among others. Cognitive behavioral and dialectical behavior therapies are common approaches for people who have painful thoughts and past traumas. These therapies help an individual cope with distress, regulate emotions, and manage impulsive urges.
Does the tendency to self-harm mean the person is suicidal?
Having this urge does not mean the individual suffers from suicidal ideation. People who want to self-injure look to distract or alleviate themselves from the pain they are experiencing. People with suicidal tendencies want to end life altogether. However, this does not mean a person with the intent to self-harm will not attempt suicide.
How often and how long are therapy sessions for self-harm?
As with any type of therapy, sessions depend on the individual. Clients may see improvement within 20 sessions, at an average of 50 minutes per session, while others may opt for 20 to 30 sessions over, maybe, a six-month period. People, especially those with co-occurring conditions like depression and anxiety, may need to continue therapy for up to 12 to 18 months.
