Perhaps you've been through a difficult experience, or a major life change. You might be battling with depression, or anxiety, or another emotional difficulty. Maybe you're struggling in one or more of your relationships, or you might be trying to change one or more unhealthy habits. Any of these challenges can make life unnecessarily difficult. If you're ready to do the work, I'm ready to work with you to get back on your feet, learn to say no, find different ways to cope, let go, or find the support you've been missing.

Often, how we navigate our traumas is informed by our relationships with our primary attachment figures. So, while I have found that "here and now" work is useful, my experience has taught me that there is no point in resolving what is on the surface if we have never attempted to deal with the root of the problem. I therefore pride myself in taking time to thoroughly understand people, so that we can work towards a more long-term form of healing.

Life, from time to time, can become a struggle for all of us, and often we feel the desire to reach out for some understanding or companionship. However, we still live in an age where seeking support or help is often regarded as a sign of weakness. I believe the complete opposite. To seek out help and support in your darkest hours in order to better understand yourself and overcome your difficulties is a sign of true bravery and courage. By reaching out, you take the first courageous step toward healing, growth, and reclaiming your inner strength.

When the client's needs are not well defined, assessment is conducted in order to determine, address and provide proper intervention that will be their best interest, (eg) Teen display behavioral issues because their inner need is not communicated maybe there is family violence at home, plan of action is structured and the goal is defined after understanding the needs. The client will be guided towards her/his goal, be encouraged and supported until she/he can be able to do the work by themselves.

My therapeutic interests are varied, and are founded on a passion for connection and providing a safe, non-judgmental space for people to share, explore and grow. If nothing else, I am an advocate for having yourself reflected back at you in a supportive and empowering space. Through my own personal therapy, I understand the apprehension around sharing intimate information. However, I have consistently observed the value of being seen, understood and challenged in therapy. My ideal clients are adults, adolescents and couples that are curious about themselves and invested in collaborative work.

I really enjoy working with clients who are feeling frustrated or stuck in their lives/ relationships and keep bumping up against the same obstacles in one way or another. Their aim for therapy is to understand why this keeps happening and to grow and develop beyond it. There are usually patterns in a person's life and it's so liberating when a client is able to see and understand them
