My approach to therapy includes providing psychological support to people, with a consciousness of their contexts and intersections. Areas of practice include psychotherapeutic interventions for depression, anxiety, complex trauma and post-traumatic stress, psychoeducation and trauma debriefing. I also conduct psychological assessments (career, occupational placement, intelligence, aptitude, personality, neuro, and projective assessments).

My ideal client is someone who feels lost, overwhelmed, or uncertain—whether from trauma, ongoing anxiety, relationship difficulties, or a sense of disconnection from their true self's. They may struggle with self-doubt or feel stuck in patterns that no longer serve them. What they need is someone who can offer compassionate support, help them process emotions, and guide them toward greater self-understanding. Their goal is not just to manage or suppress their feelings, but to truly grow, and reconnect with their inner strengths and values. They want a life that feels more authentic, fulfilling, and aligned with their core values.

Life can be hard, but it can also be wonderful! Therapy is a safe and sacred space where you can unmask and unpack during those times when you feel the heaviness of life, feel stuck, or held back by your past, trauma, stress or grief. Therapy with me is centred around processing the past and present in order to find joy again in the future. I see adults, couples and parents.
