Hello,
I am a Registered Clinical Counsellor with over a decade of clinical experience. Now in my early 50s, I’ve navigated many of life’s challenges—from emigrating and settling into a new country, to raising children and managing the complexities of marriage. These experiences have given me a deep appreciation for the power of meaningful conversations with someone I trust—conversations that provide perspective, help clarify what matters most and guide me in taking small steps today to create a better tomorrow. Through it all, I’ve seen firsthand how a strong sense of meaning and purpose can be both an anchor during difficult times and a source of joy when things are going well. These life experiences have not only shaped my approach to therapy but have also deepened my understanding of resilience, growth, and healing.
In my practice, I focus on helping adults from diverse backgrounds achieve their goals in areas such as:
- Chronic illness and pain management
- Stress management
- Loss and bereavement
- Anxiety and depression
- Life transitions
My therapeutic style is collaborative and person-centered, aiming to empower you to develop a more balanced and fulfilling life. I work alongside you to gain deeper insight into your emotions, improve your relationships, and equip you with practical tools to navigate life’s challenges.
I draw from a variety of evidence-based approaches, including Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), and Emotionally Focused Individual Therapy (EFIT). These methods help you cope more effectively with whatever difficulties you may be facing.
Having worked with a wide range of clients, I am deeply committed to providing personalized care that honors your unique needs and experiences. I offer online therapy, which many find to be a flexible and convenient option for those with busy lives.
