What is it like to work with me?

I understand what it’s like to move through the world feeling disconnected from your mind and body. You’re going through the motions without ever really feeling present. You’re always tired, running on empty, overwhelmed by stress, and feeling like everything is just too much. You wonder how everyone else seems to have it together.

There’s nothing wrong with you. This is how you’ve learned to survive.

So, let’s find a new way to live. One where you can feel more present, connected, and at home in yourself.

When seeking therapy, you’re not just looking for a skilled professional, but for someone who genuinely understands.

My approach is culturally sensitive, neuro-affirmative, and trauma-informed. I draw on a range of therapeutic approaches including Compassion Focused Therapy and attachment theory. In using these approaches I hope to help you be a better friend to yourself but also help you understand your patterns. Answering these questions: why do we think like this? Where did we learn this? Who told us it has to be like this?

I like to begin my sessions by getting to know you. I want to take time building a relationship before delving into the hard stuff. I believe that meaningful change starts with feeling genuinely seen and heard.

In this space, we are equals. You are the expert on your own lived experience, while I bring my professional expertise. Together, we will explore your experiences and understand the patterns that may be keeping you stuck, helping you develop new ways of coping, cultivate greater self-awareness, and create a life that feels more meaningful and fulfilling for you.

I know how hard it can be to talk about difficult things. You don’t have to sit perfectly still or have all the right words. If it helps you feel more grounded, you’re welcome to bring something with you. Whether that’s knitting, a colouring book, a cup of tea, or anything else that helps you feel more comfortable. Therapy doesn’t have to look a certain way for it to be meaningful.
