People come to see me for a lot of different reasons. For instance, you might be experiencing depression or anxiety, having relationship difficulties (whether you're single or partnered), going through a major life transition or loss, or wondering about the overall direction of your life. You may have a sense that there's something more to life -- that you could be living a richer life, and thriving more than you are right now. I'm here to support you and examine what's working and not, whether you're seeking a major transformation, or simply a deeper understanding of your life patterns.

I am a registered psychologist who works with adolescents (16 and up) and adults. I pride myself on making all clients feel welcome and comfortable in the therapeutic space. I like to take the time to deeply understand each individual client in order to cater my therapeutic approach to the individual. I see the client as the expert in the room and tap into their knowledge of themselves and their presenting issues to collaboratively work through and understand the issue together. I endeavour to help clients develop long lasting strategies and insight into themselves to be able to use and apply outside of the therapeutic space.

Maybe you've tried psychology and it didn't get to the heart of what you were going through? maybe you couldn't find words for whats going on, or have often struggled with "just words" in the therapeutic process. Sometimes, with PTSD, BPD, or Identity formation, we need a tangible object to sit with and reflect on. The ideal client to the Thou Art Studio is seeking creative expression, a tangible object for reflecting on, or maybe wanting to push paint around before the words come. Come get messy on the outside to articulate the messy on the inside. Pearl can sit with both messes with you.
