Individual Therapy
A space to understand yourself more fully
Support for Reflection and Change
How I Work
We begin where you are and work toward greater self-understanding, resilience, and choice.
Areas of Focus
Many people come to therapy wanting to feel steadier, more confident, or clearer in how they relate to others.
I work with adults experiencing:
- grief
- anxiety
- depression
- life transitions
- effects of trauma
- relationship challenges
- work-life balance
- self-esteem issues
- parenting challenges
Approach to Therapy
I have extensive experience supporting both men and women as they navigate relationship challenges, workplace stress, and changing roles or expectations. Therapy can offer a space to explore new ways of connecting, communicating, and understanding emotional experience in a way that feels respectful and useful.
My work integrates several evidence-based approaches, including cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT), Internal Family Systems (IFS), dialectical behaviour therapy (DBT), mindfulness-based practices, and trauma-informed care. Rather than applying any one method as a formula, these approaches are adapted to the individual so that therapy reflects your experiences, strengths, and goals.
I also pay close attention to the role of the nervous system in emotional health. At times, this means slowing the pace of therapy for regulation and reflection. Building a sense of steadiness and emotional containment allows difficult experiences to be explored safely, so that insight and change can emerge without becoming overwhelming.
In addition to my work with individuals and couples, I offer parent consultation and support. Drawing on years of experience teaching parenting programs, as well as advanced training in the Imago parenting approach, I help parents understand the needs underlying children’s behaviour and strengthen connection within the parent-child relationship. This work focuses on helping children feel seen, heard, and understood while supporting parents in responding with greater confidence and attunement.
