Individual Counselling

At times, life’s difficulties can cloud your sense of self and direction. Individual therapy aims to offer a safe, collaborative space to help you gain clarity, reconnect to your strengths, develop coping skills, and heal from past pain. Whether you're facing anxiety, depression, trauma, or a significant life transition, I’m here to support your journey toward greater self-awareness and resilience.

​

I draw upon a variety of strengths-based, relational modalities. My clinical practice is differentiated based on client diversity and needs and is grounded in an understanding of trauma and the multiple possible paths to healing. Our sessions are tailored to meet your needs and reflect my commitment to trauma-informed, compassionate care.​​

We'll work together using approaches such as...

Internal Family Systems (IFS)

Connecting with your core essence and understanding and healing parts of your system. 

Mindfulness-Based Practices

Developing tools to stay grounded and navigate life’s challenges.

EMDR Therapy

A trauma-informed approach to help you process and release emotional distress.
