Introduction

I provide a safe, non-judgmental space for you to explore the issues that are causing you distress and holding you back from living with a sense of wholeness and joy. My focus is to help individuals heal, connect, and become aware of their inner strengths. This is achieved by providing a supportive safe space, listening to your concerns, and customizing a treatment plan that meets you where you are. Some of the topics I have had the privilege of assisting clients with are; - Improving relationships - Improving emotional regulation - Reducing symptoms of anxiety, depression and trauma - Recovery from high demand religions and organizations (spiritual abuse) - Improving self-esteem and confidence - Gaining self-awareness and motivation for change - Major life transitions such as changes in relationship status, career, health and family dynamics I am trained in Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) therapy and use a variety of trauma informed approaches to tailor treatment to the needs of each client. Most of all I respect that you are the expert on your own life. I will guide and support you in your re-connection with your inner wisdom.
