For most of us, our challenges start as a response to significant change, loss, trauma, tragedy, or reversal that leads to disconnection. Losses, defeats, humiliations, or life transitions leave us trapped by our circumstances. Sometimes they may be more subtle and less visible, causing us to internalize feelings and suffer in silence. Our internal experience is filled with recurring themes and patterns in our lives that are causing us trouble, and they play out again and again, so we become conditioned by them. In therapy, we’ll explore how these patterns, often rooted in early relationships and attachments, continue to appear in your present life. This isn’t about dwelling on the past. It’s about understanding how your history shapes your current experiences and gently loosening the grip of painful emotional memories, so you can move forward with clarity, strength, and self-compassion.

I am committed to addressing the root cause of suffering by using Psychodynamic approaches, Trauma-informed Therapy, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Emotion-Focused Therapy, and Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT) in combination with other therapeutic techniques and modalities.

I create a warm, compassionate, and non-judgmental space where you can safely explore the emotional and physical aspects of mental suffering. I focus on working at your pace and readiness, restoring hope, and guiding you towards healing and inner peace.

You don’t have to go through this alone. If you’re ready to take the next step, I invite you to reach out for a free consultation. Let’s begin the journey toward healing together.
