Holistic Jungian therapist specializing in trauma and relationships
About Me
I know reaching out for support can feel like a big step, and I want to acknowledge the courage it takes to be here. My role as a counsellor is to walk alongside you with warmth, respect, and care. I offer a safe and confidential space where you can slow down, breathe, and begin to explore what is happening in your life without fear of judgment.
My approach to counselling is gentle and collaborative. I believe you are the expert in your own life and my approach is strongly influenced by person-centred and narrative approaches to therapy. This means I listen closely to the stories you tell about your life.
Together we can explore how these stories may have been shaped by experiences, relationships, culture, or painful events from the past. Through looking at your life through this ‘narrative’ lens, it becomes possible to separate the problems you face from who you are, and to re-author your story in ways that highlight your strengths, values, and hopes for the future. Many people find this process empowering, as it helps them to re-story their experiences in such a way as to support a more positive self-account.
Over the years, I have worked with people facing a wide range of concerns, including anxiety, depression, grief, trauma and challenges related to alcohol and other drug use and gambling. I also work with those who simply feel stuck, overwhelmed, or in need of a space to be heard. My practice is guided by person-centred, trauma-informed, and culturally sensitive approaches, so that we can find a pace and style of counselling that feels right for you.
Alongside my counselling practice, I also teach in the Master of Addictive Behaviours at a major University where I support and mentor the next generation of counsellors and others working in the field.
This role keeps me connected to the latest research while staying grounded in the real-world experience I’ve gained through many years of counselling, supervision, and community health work.
Most importantly, I want you to know that counselling is not about being “fixed.” It is about being truly heard, discovering new perspectives, and creating space for change—whether that means letting go of old burdens, reconnecting with what matters most, or simply finding ways to get through a difficult season of life.
If you are considering counselling, I warmly invite you to take the first step. You don’t need to have everything worked out. You only need a willingness to begin. From there, we can explore together what healing, growth, and new possibilities might look like for you.
