Therapy

---

I am a warm, compassionate and considered therapist who feels passionate about creating connection and safety within the therapeutic relationship. I work collaboratively with my clients to improve psychological wellbeing and reduce suffering, and feel privileged to ‘walk alongside’ my clients in their journey. 

Working through the effects of trauma is a particular interest and passion of mine. I have extensive experience working with people in heightened states of stress or crisis, and value the opportunity to sit with my clients while working towards a more grounded state of being using mindfulness-integrated therapies. Starting therapy is an act of bravery and I works to create a safe and warm environment to support my clients as they go through the process of recovering from trauma. I have pursued specialized training in trauma-informed therapy to enable me to best support my clients.

I enjoy working with adolescents and their families, working slowly to build a trusting environment for support and growth.  I have a great appreciation of the unique challenges facing adolescents, and of the complexity of transitioning from adolescence to adulthood. I have diverse experience in this area through in my previous roles within private practice, tertiary education and inpatient hospitals.
