Warm video welcome
Life changes, whether in your relationships, career, or otherwise, can feel overwhelming. It can feel like there is no way forward. You don’t have to navigate it alone. I offer a safe and supportive space where we can work together to find clarity and balance so you can feel more grounded and hopeful.
Parcours
Counselling is a second career for me, inspired by my love of supporting and mentoring others and my background in psychology, and my own experiences navigating tough life transitions with the help of counselling. It’s given me a deep appreciation for the importance of empathy, patience, and genuine human connection, which guide the way I work with clients. I focus on supporting women and individuals navigating major life transitions, including separation and divorce, coparenting, and career changes. I am passionate about providing compassionate, practical support to help clients feel understood, empowered, and ready to move forward."
Votre expérience thérapeutique avec moi
Having been through some difficult life transitions myself, I understand how valuable professional support can be during times of change. I especially enjoy supporting women through relationship shifts, such as separation or divorce, and other life transitions or stress. My approach is grounded in empathy, understanding, and respect for your unique journey. When you work with me, you will have a space where you feel heard, understood, and supported as you grow.

Approches thérapeutiques
Voici mes principales approches thérapeutiques, soutenues par une formation spécialisée et une expérience clinique approfondie.
Attachment Focused Therapy
I use Attachment-Focused Therapy to look at how your past experiences might be shaping the way you connect with others today. Together, we can work on healing old patterns, building healthier relationships, and growing your self-understanding.
Person-centered Therapy
I use a Person-Centred approach to create a safe, supportive space where you feel truly heard and understood. This helps you build self-trust, gain clarity, and grow at your own pace.
Existential Therapy
I use Existential Therapy to explore life’s big questions with you—things like meaning, purpose, and choice. This approach can help you live more authentically and in line with your values.
Solution Focused Brief Therapy
I use Solution-Focused Brief Therapy (SFBT) to focus on your strengths and what’s already working. Together, we’ll build on small steps that create hope and positive change.
J’intègre également ces approches fondées sur des données probantes lorsque cela est cliniquement pertinent :
Internal Family Systems (IFS)
Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT)
Mindfulness
Dialectical Behaviour Therapy
