““Growth occurs when individuals confront problems, struggle to master them, and through that struggle develop new aspects of their skills, capacities, views about life.””
Sessions with me may feel like a natural, free-flowing conversation, but they are grounded in decades of training and experience. I practice Person-Centred Counselling, which means you—the client—are at the heart of the process. Your experiences, perspectives, and goals matter. My role is to help you gain clarity and guide you forward with my expertise.
In addition to Person-Centred Counselling, I am certified in several therapeutic approaches, including Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Transactional Analysis, Hypnotherapy, Neuro-Linguistic Programming (NLP), Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT), and Grief Counselling. I integrate these methods as needed to best support your journey.
For couples, I incorporate the Gottman Method Couples Therapy, a research-based approach designed to strengthen communication, rebuild connection, and help partners navigate conflict in a healthy way.
I offer a free 15-minute consultation—in person, by phone, or via video call. This is a chance for us to discuss what you’re looking for in counselling and see if we’re a good fit.
Let’s explore how I can support you—reach out when you're ready.
Counselling isn’t just for life-altering or traumatic events. It can help you navigate everyday stressors, emotions, and challenges—big or small. If any of these resonate with you, I can help:
You want to improve a relationship with someone you care about.
You’re facing a decision and need a sounding board to weigh the pros and cons.
Conversations with certain people feel exhausting or frustrating, leaving you emotionally drained and alone.
You recognize self-defeating thought or behavior patterns and want to change them—but don’t know how.
Your emotions sometimes overwhelm you, and you’d like to express and manage them better.
You want to be more assertive, confident, and decisive.
Stress is weighing you down, and you need both relief and better coping strategies.
You’d like to strengthen your problem-solving and conflict-resolution skills.
You’re struggling with anxiety, trauma, sadness, or past experiences like childhood sexual abuse.
Most of all—you just want to be heard. Truly, deeply heard.
If any of this feels familiar, I’m here to listen and support you. You don’t have to go through this alone.
If you are suffering from any of the following, it would be best to contact a therapist in your area.
suicidal thoughts
a diagnosed mental illness including phobias, obsessions and cumpulsions
Post Traumatic Stress Disorder
domestic violence or sexual assault
clinical depression
problems with substance use and addictions
issues with eating behaviour and/or body image
