About me and my therapy practice

I offer face to face and online counselling.

I believe in the power of an integrative approach to counselling, recognizing that each individual is unique and may benefit from a tailored blend of therapeutic modalities.

My philosophy is rooted in the understanding that the mind, body, and spirit are interconnected, and addressing these aspects collectively contributes to lasting personal growth.

Thus, I will work compassionately and diligently with you to find balance, acceptance, direction, and empowerment in your life.

Practice description

How I help people.

I work in a trauma informed manner in creating a compassionate and authentic therapeutic relationship with those who engage with me. We will work together with what brings you to therapy.

Within this process, I will be with you as you explore your emotions, feelings, motivational systems, beliefs, values, and self talk from the stories you have formed over the years, which can affect how you relate to yourself and the world around you.

In all, I will work with you to find resilience, solutions, acceptance, self reliance, connectedness and peace of mind.

Approach to Therapy

"I am committed to forging a flexible, responsive, and tailored approach to helping personal growth."

From my approach as a counsellor, I emphasize the importance of the 'here and now,' guiding individuals to identify and understand current patterns, narratives, beliefs, and values that may hinder or foster empowerment. This approach can increase self determination, independent decision making and self directed action. Moreover, we can begin to see the interplay between how trauma memories, emotions and feelings govern motivational systems, thoughts and behaviour.

Additionally, I utilize psychotherapeutic techniques to assist clients in exploring and healing past experiences, enabling a deeper understanding and transformation of their lives.

I create systems and methods that fit each client, rather than forcing the client to adapt to a rigid, preconceived therapeutic model.

How I work

engage in an 'active and collaborative' humanistic approach. This involves attentive listening, thoughtful reflection, and sharing insights in a timely, empathetic, and compassionate manner.

As an active and dynamic therapist, I integrate therapeutic theories, psychological models, and frameworks with existential and philosophical insights to provide comprehensive support.

Practice description


Sessions are typically scheduled weekly, lasting 50 minutes each, though I am flexible to accommodate a cadence that suits you best, whether that be bi-weekly or more frequent meetings. 

While I prefer face-to-face interactions, I am open to online sessions or a combination of both to best fit your needs and preferences.

You are warmly invited to get in touch with me to determine if you feel at ease and confident in pursuing a working relationship together.
