Life can be challenging and complicated. Our past experiences have a way of influencing how we manage the challenges life brings and we can often find ourselves repeating patterns of behaviour, which can create even more difficulties. Therapy is a space to explore these patterns and to have an experience which is safe and challenging at the same time.

The journey of life is one of survival, joy and intense moments of struggle. It can feel overwhelming and at times like you are stuck. I believe that every person can benefit from seeing a psychologist to work through their challenges. I enjoy working with individuals who want to understand their minds, behaviours and how their past and present may impact their futures. I focus on talk-based and somatic psychotherapy, integrating various psychological approaches based on your needs. My passion for holistic mental health care stems from the belief that all parts of us are intimately interconnected, and we do not exist in isolation.

As a young professional, you are likely navigating an intense mix of career ambition, corporate identity, family expectations, and the daily pressures of city life. It is easy to look like you have it all together on the outside while feeling completely overwhelmed on the inside. I offer a modern, supportive, and culturally grounded space specifically for young adults and corporate/creative professionals who need to unpack the weight they carry. I combine practical coping tools for stress and anxiety with creative modalities like art-based counselling and mindfulness.

I help LGBTQ+ (or questioning) and marginalized people struggling with identity development, sex/sexual health issues, relational trauma & self-worth/self-esteem, cultivate a fulfilling relationship with themself and others within the context of rigid cultural expectations.
Our bodies and nervous system offer so much information about our needs and desires. When we experience adverse experiences these get stored in the body only to be repeated until we process them fully. I use somatic and emotion focused modalities to help process experiences that have been stored in the body and mind to complete the cycle needed for healing.

Often we find ourselves responding to painful situations in ways that feel familiar but difficult to explain. We may repeat patterns in relationships, struggle with the same feelings, or feel stuck in ways we cannot fully understand. These difficulties becomes easier to navigate when there is room to explore them safely with another person. Therapy offers a professional, non-judgmental relationship that can help make these experiences more understandable and create opportunities for change.

LGBTQ+ Counsellors
Do LGBTQ-affirmative therapists receive special training?
Yes. Many therapists who practice LGBTQ-affirmative therapy have completed specialised training, either during their degree programme or as continuing education, to learn the core principles of affirmative therapy and how to best support their LGBTQ clients; some have received certifications in LGBTQ-affirmative therapy. Prospective clients should inquire as to a clinician’s background and training to ensure a good fit.
Why might I want to see an LGBTQ-affirming or LGBTQ-friendly therapist?
Queer and gender-non-conforming individuals frequently experience bias and marginalisation in day-to-day life. Working with a therapist who understands these unique challenges, as well as accepts and affirms their identity, can help LGBTQ clients feel safe and supported during therapy—allowing them to better navigate their relationships, mental health, and anything else that they wish to explore during therapy. It is important to note that many therapists can be effective in their work with LGBTQ+ individuals, even in the absence of specific training or background knowledge. The most important component in therapy is the alliance between therapist and client, and this alliance can exist between individuals with very different backgrounds.
How can I find an LGBTQ-friendly therapist?
You may wish to inquire about a therapist’s expertise with your specific challenges or concerns—depression, for example, or relationship strife—as well as their past experiences treating LGBTQ+ clients. Prospective clients may also ask whether a therapist has obtained additional training and/or certification in LGBTQ-affirmative techniques.
How can I inquire about a therapist’s experience with LGBTQ issues?
Prospective clients should feel empowered to directly ask therapists whether they have received training or been certified in LGBTQ-affirming therapy; competent therapists will be happy to explain their educational background and preferred approach(es) to help a client find the best match for them. Clients may also wish to ask how a therapist has treated clients with their particular challenges in the past and what they expect treatment to look like.
Are all the therapists listed in the LGBTQ directory themselves members of the LGBTQ community?
While therapists may choose to disclose their sexual orientation or gender identity in their profiles, the LGBTQ directory features not only those who have shared this information but also those who assert specialised training or experience in providing support to queer individuals, couples or families.
