Online psychotherapist with an eclectic and inventive approach. Practicing Internal Family Systems Therapy (IFS) and Solution-Focused Brief Therapy (SFBT). I believe that people already have within themselves what they need in order to overcome their struggles. All it takes is a bit of guidance and someone to ask the right questions. My wish for my clients is that they find the inner freedom to live the life that they want. I mostly work with expats, travelers, digital nomads, burners - I can relate to the lifestyle and can appreciate the need for flexibility and rescheduling sessions when necessary, however, anyone is welcome.

I work with adults who have a desire to better understand themselves and their place in the world. My primary area of focus is disconnection; from self, others, or from a sense of purpose in life. I believe that when we feel disconnected, a range of problems may arise as a result. Anxiety, depression, substance use, compulsive behaviours or feelings of numbness and unreality can often be alleviated through identifying areas in our life where we have become disconnected.

My therapy space is for anyone experiencing loss or sadness, including relationship breakdown, identity crisis, children leaving home, job loss, pet death, loss of self, loneliness, or bereavement. Sometimes when we’re stuck in loss or grief, words are not enough. Unexpressed emotions are pent up inside us as we hide our feelings to protect ourselves or others. This can lead to ill physical and mental health and put strain on relationships. I take the time to honor your pain, allowing you to express and acknowledge it in a way that feels right to you, using life-affirming processes of arts, music, movement and writing.

I work with adults and teenagers struggling with anxiety, depression, anger management, low self esteem and personality disorders. I help clients work on thought distortions at the roots of their distress which in turn helps alleviate their strong negative emotions (worry, shame, guilt, sadness, self-loathing etc.). Most of my clients see an easing of symptoms within the first month and sustained improvement thereafter.

My approach is rooted in self exploration and analysis of the stories people tell themselves and how shifting those narratives can alleviate guilt, worry and sadness. Many of my clients are experiencing major life transitions -- whether on the journey to starting a family or entering a new phase of independence -- and a change in thinking style and perspective can unlock new purpose and potential.

Are you caught in a loop of unhelpful habits, feeling stuck despite your efforts to change? Does your body sometimes react with no clear reason, or have a big reaction to a situation? These experiences might indicate deeper issues that need addressing. If your goal is to break free from these patterns, find peace within your mind and body, and build a life that feels meaningful and fulfilling, then you may benefit from trauma therapy.

Female Counsellors

Does it matter what gender my therapist is?

In general, this is not an important factor, as there is no relationship between a therapist’s gender and their efficacy. Some clients, however, prefer to see therapists of a particular gender, whether due to their own past experiences with men and women, or ingrained beliefs about how people of different genders think and behave. Exploring the roots of such preferences and considering what one wants to address in therapy can help someone determine whether their therapist’s gender truly matters to them.

Should I see a female therapist?

Many people—not just women—prefer to see a female therapist, either because they believe that a woman will be able to relate to their specific challenges (for example, sexism in the workplace) or because they imagine feeling more comfortable disclosing sensitive information to a woman. Such beliefs may not turn out to be accurate, however, and adhering too rigidly to a gender preference can at times hinder a client from finding the best therapeutic match.

Do therapists get specific training to help with women’s concerns?

Therapists are trained to provide care to clients of any gender. However, some therapists—both men and women—may pursue additional training in feminist therapy, gender-specific issues, or women’s mental health. Female clients may wish to ask prospective therapists whether they have received specific training in the client’s primary area(s) of concern, or whether they have worked extensively with women on issues similar to their own.

How can I inquire about a therapist’s experience in treating women?

It’s OK—even encouraged!—to ask a therapist directly whether and how often they have treated women in the past, or whether they have treated women dealing with the client’s most prominent concern(s). Competent therapists will be happy to share their educational background, preferred treatment modalities, and prior client experience to help an individual find the therapist best suited to their needs.
