When life is difficult, we often don't know where to turn. Through discovery and compassion, comes hope and growth and that is the goal counselling aims to provide. I have been practicing counselling for 20 years and I provide individual counselling to those over the age of 16 who are looking for hope, support and growth. I am available to see clients in both London and Ingersoll and my role is to support clients in finding ways to improve the quality of their life and finally feel like they can move forward.

You're overwhelmed by worries, low mood, stress, grief, or impostor syndrome. Daily life feels like you're just going through the motions and you are sliding further away from where you thought you'd be. But you are not alone and it won't always be this hard. People come to therapy to move away from feelings of overwhelm, trust themselves again, and to find your voice again. We will create a relationship built on curiosity, compassion, and the belief that you are stronger than you think. Couples therapy for couples facing challenges in their relationship as (new) parents also offered.

I believe that people start to heal the moment they feel heard and so my aim is to provide a safe and non-judgmental space that provides my clients validation and understanding. My work is relational, trauma-informed and attachment-based. I have a passion for supporting my child, teen and adult clients in having "aha moments" as they discover how their past experiences are causing the brain to instinctively protect in the present. We can then use this understanding ultimately gain symptom relief. I also provide Clinical Supervision (which meet CRPO standards) and Consultation for upcoming and developed counsellors.

Are you someone who has tried talk therapy but is still feeling "stuck"? Are you looking for an experience of therapy that includes your body, spirit, mind, and helps you embody your wholeness? Somatic therapy is a nervous system informed, trauma-oriented approach that goes beyond talking and offers experiential practices that can gently reshape the survival patterning (trauma) that loops in our bodies. Somatic Therapy helps us build a sense of home in our bodies and our world so we can experience our aliveness. This work is gentle, drawing from arts, play, spirituality, compassion-focused, nature-based, and decolonial approaches.

Deciding to seek support is not always easy. Typically it's made when a conflict gets to the point where it can no longer be managed alone. Once the decision has been made, there can be fear or unease around talking about vulnerable emotions or life situations. I recognize the courage that it takes to reach out for help, and endeavour to work from a framework of empowerment so clients can uncover their inherent strengths and abilities. Solutions to our troubles often lie within, however the journey to uncovering these is one that many people struggle to walk alone.

I believe in the innate goodness of people and the power of connection to influence positive change. My focus is to help you grow authentically and holistically so you feel as though you are thriving, not just surviving. I have a special passion for working with individuals navigating life transitions, new and expecting mothers, and those experiencing difficulties with anxiety, depression, emotion regulation, interpersonal conflicts, concussion management, and self-esteem. I believe through building stronger, healthier, and more connected individuals and families we can create a positive a ripple-effect in our society.

I'm passionate about helping others to find healing, wholeness and well-being. My approach is grounded in curiosity, compassion and respect for my clients unique needs and goals. Many clients I support are interested in understanding themselves on a deeper level, which may include exploring their emotions, beliefs, relational patterns, childhood wounds, intergenerational wounds and more. I use a holistic approach that is both brain and body-based in order to help heal the root of your issues.

The idea of seeking professional counselling and therapy can sometimes be intimidating for many. That is why I help clients by providing a safe and nonjudgmental space for them to explore their thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. I work collaboratively with clients to help them gain insight into their problems, develop coping skills, and make positive changes in their lives. I also provide support and guidance to clients as they navigate through difficult life transitions, such as divorce, loss, or career changes.
