Description
I am passionate about helping people from all walks of life heal from their wounds. Whether it is painful childhood memories, one or more major events, relationships, or a series of micro-traumas, trauma causes changes in the brain and body. This shapes us in subtle ways, many of which are unconscious and affect our self-worth, thoughts and behaviour. The stories we tell define our lives in our own eyes and in the eyes of others. I aim to help you break free from the thought patterns that cause you to experience the same types of situations, events and people in your life.

Summary
As we journey through life, unfair things happen. The associated thoughts, feelings and people can stay with us as painful memories, create a sense of burden and influence our future expectations. There comes a point at which continuing to suffer for past events and relationships is no longer useful. Through psychotherapy, our aim is to explore thoughts, ideas, feelings, behaviours and interpersonal patterns that may cause us to feel "stuck" in life. The stories we tell, define our lives in our own eyes and in the eyes of others. Different narratives may lead to different future experiences.
