I offer compassionate, client-centred counselling tailored to each person’s unique needs. Drawing on holistic approaches, I support clients in exploring challenges, building resilience, and moving toward personal growth.
My work integrates Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Internal Family Systems (IFS), and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT). These approaches help clients develop emotional awareness, shift unhelpful patterns, and take meaningful steps aligned with their values.
I take a trauma-informed and attachment-focused approach, recognizing the powerful connection between mind, body, and relationships. Techniques such as mindfulness, grounding, and self-compassion are woven into sessions to support overall well-being.
When working with children, I incorporate engaging, play-based activities that support emotional expression, self-regulation, and connection. Play creates a natural and safe way for kids to explore their inner world. In June, I will begin training in Synergetic Play Therapy, a neuroscience-informed model that supports both the child and their caregiver through relational and experiential work.
I am committed to creating a safe, inclusive, and affirming space for individuals of all identities, including members of the LGBTQIA2S+ community. My goal is to help each client feel supported, understood, and empowered to navigate life with greater confidence and authenticity.
