Our first session will focus on gaining an understanding of what brings you to therapy and what you are hoping to gain from your sessions. My work is tailored to you as an individual person and your needs, therefore therapy may be short or long term, goal oriented or reflection-focused. 

​

Therapy involves developing insight and understanding of the difficulties and challenges we face in life. During therapy our work together will explore and identify unhelpful thoughts, emotions and behavioural patterns that you might get into. With new awareness, we will work towards helping you change the way you see yourself, your relationships and the world around you. I will give you practical tools to manage current difficulties, while also helping to address and heal the underlying causes of those problems and moving towards self-acceptance. Throughout this process my goal is to help you live a more meaningful life that is guided by your values and what is important to you. My therapy style focuses on identifying and building on your existing strengths and resilience to guide you towards reaching your full-potential. I believe strongly in the importance of using the therapeutic relationship to facilitate transformation and change, and my goal as a therapist is to provide you with a supportive environment in which you feel safe to discuss difficult issues.

​

I have experience with and am sensitive to working with people from a wide range of cultural and spiritual backgrounds, and sexual orientations.
