​

I have experience working with a variety of presentations, and have worked with adults and adolescents on issues including depression, anxiety, trauma, relationship issues, self-esteem, resilience, assertiveness, coping, sleep issues, drug and alcohol issues, and addictive behaviours. Please feel free to reach out for a brief conversation to see if I'm the right fit for you.

I focus on a warm, compassionate, and respectful style which incorporates a variety of techniques and approaches, including Cognitive Behaviour Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Motivational Interviewing (MI), Attachment Theory, and Schema Therapy.

In therapy, I aim to support my clients by helping them to develop insight into their problems, identify their goals and values, and work together to draw on their strengths to achieve their therapeutic goals. Together, we will work together to make sense of your situation, behaviours, and feelings, and a build a healthier future.

​

I am a board approved supervisor, and am currently undertaking the Clinical Registrar program.
