Life doesn't always unfold the way we expected. People come to therapy when they're grieving, stuck, overwhelmed, facing major life changes, struggling in relationships, or trying to make sense of experiences that continue to affect them. Therapy doesn't need to feel clinical or detached. IIt can be a space where people can think, reflect, experiment, and sometimes even laugh, while doing meaningful work toward change.
I work with grief and loss, divorce, family conflict, addiction, shame, pregnancy loss, aging, retirement, and other significant life transitions. My approach is psychodynamic, which means we pay attention not only to what's happening now, but also to the experiences and relationships that have shaped how you see yourself and others.
I am an HPCSA-registered Drama Therapist with postgraduate training in psychology, film and television, and drama therapy, and I am also a Family Law Mediator.
