Life changes can be disorienting and painful—whether it's the loss of a loved one, starting anew, or feeling trapped by expectations. While we all have the capacity to thrive, a therapist's support can help you tap into your inner needs and reconnect to the healthy self within.
My clients tend to be bright and accomplished people who look like they've got it together on the outside, but inwardly struggle with anxiety, insecurity and a sense of feeling stuck.
With warmth, empathy and humour, I will work collaboratively with you to address the challenges you are facing. This may involve harnessing forgotten inner strengths, understanding old patterns that no longer serve, or finding new coping skills and ways of relating to yourself and others. I support my clients to open up to life's contradictions and to accept that pain and joy and purpose can, and do, live side by side.
I have lived experience with loss, unrealized dreams, and chronic illness. I know what it is like to struggle with loneliness, grief, fear and anger. I also know what it is like to create more openness and calm inside, in order to live and relate with greater ease and connection.
Counselling is my second career – after years of feeling unfulfilled and seeking more meaning and purpose in my work, I took the leap in my 30's and trained to become a therapist. I hold a masters in Counselling Psychology, and have worked at several leading agencies, health authorities, non-profit counselling services, and private clinics.
I bring a direct and compassionate approach to the counselling space and look forward to supporting you in your journey towards healing and growth.
