Experience client-centred psychotherapy rooted in empathy, flexibility, and acceptance.

I believe that exploration and learning can foster growth that is long‑lasting. That does not mean you have to change who you are, but rather to understand yourself in new ways. Growth isn’t linear or directed, but it can sometimes feel transformative.

It is also a fundamental belief of mine that, in processing difficult emotions—loss, grief, trauma, and the other facets of being human—we enable ourselves to live a fuller life. It allows us to connect with others and form lasting relationships with friends, family, lovers, and ourselves.

I offer psychotherapy that is driven by empathy, understanding, and open‑mindedness. I provide support every step of the way. I use cognitive and behavioural methods in order to empower clients to make changes that matter to them. I draw on other modalities such as person‑centred, emotionally‑focused, relational, and schema therapy to offer an eclectic approach that is tailored to each client’s needs.

My practice acknowledges the differences in every experience and the things that matter to my clients, such as identity, spirituality, and culture. In our sessions, I encourage clients to bring their authentic selves, and if that is not possible at first we work at the best pace until we have formed the trust needed to begin.

I believe that everyone should be able to experience what it is like to be accepted as they are, but it is unfortunate that it is never that simple. Therefore, I offer concessionary rates for income‑based needs, students, and trainees. I also take a few clients completely for free to continue giving back to the community in which I work.
