Personal biography
One thing I’ve learned throughout my practice is how easy it is to get stuck in certain patterns, such as ways of thinking, feeling, or reacting that may have once helped you cope, but now leave you feeling disconnected from who you really want to be! My goal is to create a supportive, non-judgemental environment where you can make sense of your unique experiences, understand where those patterns come from, and begin the work of processing them. Together, we’ll explore what it means for you to feel safe, supported, and truly seen.
Approach
My role is to walk alongside you in this therapeutic process. Whether you’re dealing with overthinking, relationship struggles, need support on your self-growth journey, or that general sense of being stuck, I tailor my approach to you and your needs. My approach to therapy is integrative and in my work with adolescents and adults, I often draw from CBT, IFS, EFT, and psychodynamic approaches, but more than any specific method, what matters most to me is building a space where you feel heard and understood.
Experience
I hold a BA in Psychology and a Master’s degree in Counselling Psychology, where I developed a strong foundation in psychological theory and counselling practices. Since then, I have continued my passion about helping individuals develop a deeper understanding of themselves, explore areas for growth, and recognize their capacity for meaningful change.
Working With Me
I know change isn’t always easy, but it is possible. And you don’t have to do it alone. If you’re ready to take that first step, I’d be honored to support you on your journey. When you feel ready, I’d love to connect. Let’s set up a free 20-minute consultation to see if working together feels like the right fit for you.
More Than Just My Work
Outside of my work, I’m someone who truly values experiences. Whether that’s exploring new places, spending time with friends, or simply enjoying moments with my pet. I’m drawn to creativity and self-expression, and I love getting behind a camera to capture life through photography and videography. These moments help me stay grounded, inspired, and connected to the world in a way that fuels both my personal life and the work I do with others.
