MY APPROACH
​______

​Therapy that follows you, 
not the other way around. 

​I am a person-centered therapist who leads from behind- which means you are always
at the centre of our work. Together, we move at a pace that feels right for you. 

Using a trauma-informed approach, I help you to feel safe, understood, and supported
while we work towards the changes that matter most to you.

I draw from evidence-based therapies including Dialectical Behavioural Therapy (DBT)
and Emotionally-Focused Individual Therapy (EFIT) to help you build skills, regulate
emotions, and create meaningful change. ​

   
         " I lead from behind, so you can
           take the lead in your own life.
