My Philosophy
My work is rooted in humanistic psychology, which believes that every person possesses an inherent capacity for growth and healing. Therapy provides a space to deepen self-awareness, strengthen resilience, and reconnect with what brings meaning and purpose to your life.
I also draw from attachment theory, recognizing that our earliest relationships shape how we see ourselves, connect with others, and respond to stress. Understanding these patterns can open the door to greater self-compassion and healthier relationships.
As a trauma-informed counsellor, I recognize the profound impact that difficult experiences can have on the mind, body, emotions, and relationships. Healing from trauma is not about reliving the past but gently creating new experiences of safety, connection, and hope.
A Personalized Approach
No two people are alike, and therapy shouldn't be either.
Rather than following a one-size-fits-all model, I tailor counselling to your unique needs, preferences, and goals by integrating evidence-based approaches, including:
- Eye Movement Desensitization & Reprocessing (EMDR)
- Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT)
- Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT)
- Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT)
- The Gottman Method
- Narrative Therapy
- Solution-Focused Therapy
- Motivational Interviewing
- Play and Art-Based Therapies
The approach we use will depend on what feels most supportive for you.
