One day you finally knew what you had to do, and began.

What to Expect
I offer a warm, compassionate, confidential space where you can talk openly and at your own pace.
My approach is integrative and relational. This means I draw on different therapeutic approaches in my work, mainly psychodynamic, transpersonal and humanistic. An integrative approach allows our work to be flexible and responsive to you as an individual; integrating mind, body, emotions and spirit into the healing process.
We may focus on what’s happening in your life now, while also exploring the deeper patterns shaped by your past and relationships.
People often start therapy when they feel caught in repeating cycles. Alongside easing immediate distress, we think about what lies underneath, where more lasting change can begin.
Over time, people often find they understand themselves more clearly, feel less stuck, and are able to relate differently to themselves and others.
Our work together may involve talking, reflection, creative exploration, and embodied awareness. Sometimes we may work with dreams and images, to access creative and intuitive forms of knowing and meaning.
In our sessions, you can expect me to be present, thoughtful, and engaged. Therapy with me is a space to slow down, think together and make sense of your experience.
I work with an intersectional awareness of power and social context, and how these forces impact our emotional life, identity, relationships and distress.
