I currently have availability for adolescents from 18 years and adults. 

All sessions are online. 

There are a myriad of reasons why you may be looking for a therapist at this time. If this is your first time, the process can feel overwhelming as you look through various profiles to find the right person. Perhaps you are looking for someone you identify with, and has the skills, knowledge and experience to support you at this time.

I understand how crucial that connection is. I work using an integrative approach, which means I use various therapeutic techniques tailored to your unique needs. No two people are the same, and what works for one person may not work for another. Therefore it's important to find out what works for you. 

I work with clients who have experienced childhood abuse, sexual trauma, anxiety, depression, cultural issues, self esteem and identity issues. I have worked with adults, children and their families at various life stages.

The distress you may be feeling doesn't need to come from major trauma or something current. It could be related to relationships, family, work, identity, or other life challenges. I provide a safe place for you to work through any "stuckness" with patience and care. We will processs the emotional and mental burdens, and explore pathways towards healing.

I have had the privilege of working with people from different backgrounds. This diversity has shaped my practise and allows me to approach each client with openness, empathy and understanding. 

Looking for the right therapist can take time. You are right to take your time to find someone who can work with you. When you are ready, I will be here to join you on your therapeutic journey. 

Qualifications:

• Certificate in Traumatic Stress Studies (Trauma Research Foundation)
• Masters (MEd) in Child and Adolescent Psychotherapeutic Counselling 
• Post Graduate Diploma(PGDip) in Child and Adolescent Psychotherapeutic Counselling 

My approach is deeply rooted in empathy,  kindness and respect.  Although I am here to support you, I recognize that you are the expert on all matters concerning you, so I will be guided by you. 

Our sessions will be a collaborative space where your insights and experiences lead the way. I will listen attentively and provide a warm, confidential, and non-judgemental environment where you can feel safe to explore your thoughts and feelings. Together we will work towards your goals, at a pace that feels right for you.

I provide both short term and long term contacts. 

I offer a complimentary 15-minute introductory call. This call is an opportunity for you to share what has led you to consider therapy and ask any questions about the way I work. 

Following this call you are welcome to decide if you would like us to work together. 

If we agree to work together, I will ask you to complete an assessment form, and send you a copy of my working agreement. 

Additionally, we will agree on a time and a day for your sessions, which typically occur weekly and last 50 minutes.
