Your therapeutic experience with me

Walking into therapy with me, you’ll find a space that is soft, steady, and deeply attuned to you. My approach is warm, collaborative, and thoughtful, gently guiding without rushing, offering structure when it's needed, and always honouring your pace. Whatever you're navigating, I bring a calm and compassionate presence that helps you feel safe to show up just as you are. Together, we’ll make space for the complexity of your experience, your strength and your struggle, your grief and your growth. I blend evidence-based approaches like CBT, DBT, EMDR, ACT, and CFT with a deep respect for your lived experience, culture, and values.

Therapeutic approaches

These are my primary therapeutic approaches, backed by specialized training and extensive clinical experience.

rating

EMDR

Helps my clients heal from trauma. It uses eye movements or gentle stimulation while you think about a troubling memory, helping your brain process it in a healthier way. EMDR can reduce the emotional impact of past events so they don't feel as overwhelming. I offer this for birth trauma as well.

rating

Acceptance Commitment Therapy

ACT helps clients navigate difficult thoughts and emotions with more openness and self-compassion. It supports my clients in letting go of struggle, connecting to their values, and taking meaningful steps toward a more fulfilling life even with pain present. It is about accepting and connecting.

rating

Emotion-focused Therapy

EFT helps clients explore emotions with depth and compassion. By understanding and transforming emotional patterns, clients develop a stronger sense of self, improve relationships, and begin to respond to life from a place of clarity and authenticity.

rating

Internal Family Systems

IFS helps clients explore the different “parts” within them like the inner critic, the people-pleaser, or the wounded child with curiosity and care. By building a relationship with these parts, clients find healing, balance, and a deeper connection to their true self.
