Talking with friends or family can be supportive, and at times it may not offer the kind of space you’re really needing. Therapy is a place that is just for you — somewhere confidential, steady, and free from judgement, where you can take a breath, slow things down, and feel truly listened to.
People come to therapy for many different reasons. You might be looking for clarity or reassurance, or for a space to express something that hasn’t yet found words. You may be moving through a time of change, feeling overwhelmed, or wanting to sit more deeply with patterns or feelings that have been with you for a long time.
I offer a grounded and compassionate space where your story is met with care, and where the pace of the work is guided by you. My approach is person-centred, holding you as a whole person rather than focusing only on what feels difficult. Your spiritual life and beliefs are welcomed, and can be included in ways that feel meaningful and supportive to you.
How We Work Together
My sessions blend evidence-based and trauma-informed approaches, including:
• Compassionate Inquiry
• Mindfulness practices
• CBT and ACT
• Metaphor, imagery, and symbolic language
Together we explore your experiences with curiosity and care. Sometimes the healing begins simply by telling your story and feeling deeply heard.
Whether for a single session or ongoing support, counselling helps you reflect, find direction, and take steps toward healing and personal growth.
I offer critical incident debriefing for individuals, couples, families, and workplaces, providing a calm, supportive space to begin making sense of what has happened.
There is no single way people respond to a critical incident. Reactions can shift over time, and different stages of support may be needed. I work alongside you through these stages, at a pace that feels manageable, whether you are seeking support as an individual or as part of a group.
Sessions can be offered in person, online, or as outreach, where I come to you.
The impact of a critical incident is unique to each person. At times, it can bring forward earlier experiences or vulnerabilities, adding layers to what is being held. This is approached with care, allowing space for what is present without rushing the process.
Healing does not happen in isolation. Support from family, community, or the workplace can be an important part of recovery, and I can assist in strengthening these supports so that no one is left to navigate it alone.
