I can offer you a safe space to feel your emotions, understand yourself better and work through patterns that limit your potential. You may be experiencing loss or are going through a life transition. You may struggle with your self-esteem, body image or gender identity, or with recognizing your needs and boundaries. You might be queer and are looking for an affirming and inclusive therapist who can help with issues related to your identity and sexuality. Maybe you have relationship challenges such as issues with attachment, codependency and communication. Or, you may have a hard time with your emotions, and may have trauma.
I understand the pain and paralysis that can come from perfectionism, self-criticism and shame. I also understand how hard it can be to feel safe at times, be it in your own body, in connection with others, or otherwise. I know first-hand what it means to change the relationship within in order to live a more fulfilling life, and can help you to do so too.
I have been on a therapeutic path for over 25 years, first for myself, and now to help others. My approach is informed by an MA in Counselling Psychology, and training in Somatic Experiencing, somatic psychotherapy, and Internal Family Systems. I am a warm, kind and compassionate therapist who works from a person-centred, culturally inclusive, gender-affirming and feminist perspective. In addition, I have years of personal practice with mindfulness, yoga, breathwork, and earth-based spirituality.
