Psychotherapy
How I work
Through exploring your thoughts and feelings and working to create healthy boundaries while strengthening your resilience, I hope to help facilitate change towards self-acceptance and positive personal growth. As a change-oriented therapist, I encourage holding a safe space to connect, build a connection and develop an individual collaborative treatment plan with my clients to work through life’s many challenges. And together we can navigate our way to understanding, and guide you to live your most authentic and fulfilling life.
I believe we all have the capacity to cope, to improve, and to change our circumstances and my hope is to be a positive support to you in your journey. We are all in this together and it is together that we may be able to work towards a better tomorrow.
