Practice information:

At the heart of my practice is a belief that bringing light to what pains us, with openness, kindness and compassion, helps us connect to our natural healing capacity. As a counsellor, I bring my knowledge, experience and humanity to create a safe space for this healing to occur.  I focus on working with adults impacted by trauma, relational abuse, life transitions, anxiety, depression, shame, issues of self-worth, identity and belonging. I will walk alongside you as you navigate your path to experiencing more wholeness, ease and aliveness in your relationship with yourself and with others.

I integrate trauma-informed, experiential and relational approaches to meet individual client needs, bringing a holistic perspective that involves helping clients get in touch with different facets of their experience –  somatic, emotional, mental and spiritual – and gain insight into relationships in their lives.

Any change that is possible in counselling stems from a genuine, respectful and nourishing therapeutic relationship. I feel honoured to co-create such relationships with my clients.
