My Approach to Therapy

I appreciate the strengths that each and every client bring with them to the therapeutic process. Therapy is unique to your needs and I hope to connect on what you need to feel more fulfilled in life. Of course the beginning can be scary, and I want to acknowledge that I am here to provide a safe space to unpack emotions, trauma, troubling thoughts, intrusive thoughts, or concerning interpersonal situations. Life can be tough, therapy should be a comforting place to land in the midst of the busy lives we all lead. I find it best to discuss what you are looking for in a free 15-minute consultation and ensure we both feel it is a fit before moving forward. My working hours are Monday-Friday, 10am-7pm and I offer both in person and virtual therapy options. I look forward to connecting on what you need to feel like the best version of you.

Importance of the Client-Therapist Alliance

I truly believe that we need to feel safe before beginning the healing process which is why I value the pace that you set within our sessions.

Groups I Work With

I am an integrative therapist and will utilize the approach that we agree together will be best for your presenting concerns. Working with values can work for some, concrete skills of cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT) can work for others, and having a reflective, non-judgemental space is what many are looking for during their time in therapy. Whichever approach we take, we will discuss together, and implement as a team.
