The quality of our lives is shaped by the quality of our connections—beginning with the connection we have with ourselves. In times like these, that connection can feel especially hard to hold onto.
Economic pressure, environmental anxiety, a relentless news cycle—these realities shape our nervous systems and relationships, alongside the pull of past experiences and the meanings we've made of them. Caught between what's behind us and what's ahead, it's easy to lose our balance.
Psychotherapy offers a confidential space to explore both—our history and the world we're living in now. Within a respectful, empathic relationship, we can approach our wounds and hidden parts, while activating our unique strengths and resources in the here and now.
We can explore your current needs in relationship, and I can stand beside you during a breakup or failure of connection. I support diverse relationship models.
All of us experience common mental health challenges including stress, depression, and anxiety. I can provide a safe, space for you to process your feelings and connect to your resources.
I affirm gender, sex, and relationship diversity. I am experienced working with a range of non-conforming clients of all ages - as well as those questioning their identities or transitioning.
Traumatic experiences, including losses often leave deep wounds and scars in us. They occur at every stage of life. The meanings we make as a result can be supportive and/or destructive. In time, we can heal.
Are you acting in your own and others' best interests? Are your actions harmful or destructive? Without judgment, we will make sense of your patterns of behaviour.
Feelings of shame and self-criticism can be mild or chronic. They arise for all sorts of reasons and bring defensive behaviours. We can look at these safely together.
