Description

I trust in the body’s innate wisdom and capacity to heal from difficult emotional experiences and know that this work can only truly happen when the body feels safe. I see my role as that of a trusted collaborator, allying with you to co-create a space of safety, dignity, and belonging around whatever it is you are seeking to work through and heal. I believe that you hold all of the skill and knowledge you need to move forward in your life and toward the things that matter most to you and am here to support you along the way.

Summary

I believe that no one should have to move through their challenges alone. I create a compassionate, accepting and curious counselling space to navigate these difficulties together. My approach is person centered and holistic with the understanding that you are the expert in your own life and possess the strength to make meaningful change for yourself. I work to meet you where you are at and move forward from there with the use of various counselling approaches that are personalised to your individual needs.
