​

I believe that every person has the capacity for growth, healing, and meaningful change when provided with a safe, compassionate, and non-judgmental therapeutic relationship. My approach is rooted in psychodynamic, humanistic, and person-centred principles, while thoughtfully integrating evidence-based modalities including Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT), Meaning-Centred Therapy, EMDR, and Clinical Counselling Hypnotherapy.

​

What makes my approach unique is the integration of neuroscience and psychology through a neuropsychotherapeutic lens. My educational background includes a Master of Arts (Honours) in Counselling Psychology, a Master of Applied Disability Studies specializing in Applied Behaviour Analysis, and a Bachelor of Science in Neuroscience with a specialization in Neuropsychology. This foundation allows me to understand not only the emotional aspects of healing but also how the brain, nervous system, behaviour, and life experiences interact to shape our wellbeing.

​

I believe that our personal values serve as an internal compass, guiding our decisions, strengthening our resilience, and helping us create lives that feel authentic and fulfilling. Together, we work to identify these values while developing practical skills that promote emotional wellbeing, healthier relationships, and lasting personal growth.

​

My areas of specialization include trauma, interpersonal conflict, relationship challenges, anxiety, and emotional regulation. Trauma is deeply personal and can result from a single event or a series of experiences over time. Whether trauma is acute or complex, I provide individualized, trauma-informed care that honours each client's unique story. Through compassion, collaboration, and evidence-based interventions—including EMDR when appropriate—I help clients safely process difficult experiences while building emotional resilience and reconnecting with their sense of self.

​

I am also passionate about helping individuals and couples navigate conflict with greater understanding and respect. While disagreements are an inevitable part of being human, they do not have to define our relationships. Therapy provides an opportunity to strengthen communication, develop healthier patterns of interaction, and learn to appreciate differing perspectives while remaining true to ourselves.

​

My goal is to create a space where you feel genuinely heard, understood, and empowered. Together, we will build on your strengths, explore the patterns that may be holding you back, and work toward meaningful, lasting change that aligns with the life you want to live.
