About Me:
I have a passion for helping others through therapy and helping clients meet their goals as well as improve their day-to-day life through therapy. I understand how daunting it can be looking for a therapist and wish to offer a space where you, the client, feels heard, listened to, and validated, where you feel safe to explore any issues you may currently be experiencing or any past events that you feel stuck in and wish to process. I believe therapy can be beneficial to give you the space to look at these thoughts and feelings in a more in-depth way to find the roots of what may be causing these feelings and look at ways of moving forwards.
I understand life can be full on and so we don’t often get times to sit and process any events that have happened which can lead to feeling overwhelmed, anxiety or depression. Life and work have especially felt heavier over the last several years with individuals experiencing burnout through the different changes we have all had to face. I believe through regular therapy sessions; it allows you a place to work through and process any of these experiences as well as looking at coping mechanisms that can help day to day.
