My Approach
I aim to create a supportive space where clients feel safe to explore their journeys and recognize their unique strengths. I believe in honouring clients as experts in their own lives and empowering them to discover their resilience and pursue personal growth.
Working with older teens and adults, I bring compassion, openness, and a sense of humour to our work together. My approach is rooted in a client-centered framework, complemented by modalities such as Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), Clinical Hypnosis, Natural Processing, Prolonged Exposure (PE) therapy, attachment theory and somatic therapies. This blend allows me to tailor our sessions to align with each client's unique needs and goals.
I am committed to practicing from a culturally informed and inclusive lens, bringing sensitivity and respect to each client’s cultural background and lived experiences. I aim to provide a welcoming and affirming environment where diversity is valued and individual identities are honoured. I understand that cultural context is integral to each person's story, and I strive to incorporate this awareness into our therapeutic work.
I value ongoing professional development to ensure clients benefit from the latest insights in the field. My specialized training in sport and performance psychology, trauma, and sexual violence, coupled with my experience in diverse settings, helps me support clients in building self-awareness, achieving clarity, and reconnecting with their authentic selves. My approach involves helping clients recognize the impacts of their experiences, unlearning what no longer serves them, and building a foundation that aligns with their current needs.
