About Me

As a psychotherapist, I firmly believe that each person’s experience is unique, so I tailor my therapeutic approach to meet the specific needs and goals of each person I work with.

I am committed to providing an empathetic, collaborative, and safe space for clients to explore their thoughts, emotions, and patterns of behaviour. I am dedicated to creating a warm and nonjudgmental space where individuals can transform through mindfulness, healing and self-discovery.

My ultimate goal is to empower my clients and support them in overcoming their challenges, whatever they may be.

Personalized Therapy for Insight & Growth

I draw from a wide range of therapeutic modalities, including Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Emotionally Focused Therapy, Psychodynamic approaches, Mindfulness-based interventions, and Trauma-informed practices.

This integrative approach allows me to tailor therapy to your unique needs, which can promote insight, self-awareness, and positive change. Together, we will work towards exploring your concerns, uncover underlying patterns, and developing practical strategies to navigate life’s challenges.

I am here to support you every step of the way as we embark on your journey toward healing, self-discovery, and a more fulfilling life.

How therapy works:

  • I wanted to take a moment to emphasize a crucial aspect of our therapeutic journey together:

    the understanding that one therapeutic modality does not fit all, and that every individual is unique in their needs and experiences.

    In the following dropdown boxes I want you to consider a few important points:

  • In therapy, Each person, family or couple I work with is unique with their own life story, challenges, and strengths. What works for one person or couple may not be the most effective approach for another. Recognizing and honoring your individuality is a cornerstone of our therapeutic process.

  • Therapy is not a one-size-fits-all endeavor. There is a diverse range of therapeutic modalities and approaches, and my goal is to customize our sessions to align with your specific needs and preferences.

    Your comfort and progress are my top priorities.

  • To tailor our therapeutic approach effectively, I need to gain a deeper understanding of your main concerns, both in and outside of our sessions. Your life context, personal history, and immediate challenges all play a vital role in shaping the strategies and interventions we employ.

  • Our therapeutic relationship is a partnership. Your active participation in the process, open communication, and feedback are essential to ensuring that our sessions are productive and meaningful to you. I encourage you to share your thoughts, concerns, and preferences as we move forward.

  • As we progress, it’s essential to remain flexible and adaptable in our approach. If you ever feel that a particular modality or technique isn’t resonating with you or isn’t addressing your needs, please don’t hesitate to communicate that with me. We can adjust and explore different avenues that may be more effective for you.
