MODALITIES

From the moment we take our first breath, we are shaped by invisible forces. The roles, expectations and cultural narratives that mould us can leave us feeling fragmented, unseen, or lost.

Together, we can pick up those pieces and create your own beautiful mosaic that reflects your authentic self. Therapy is about coming as you are, finding new beginnings, discovering what has always lain beneath the surface, and creating your own sense of meaning, purpose and feeling free.

It is my belief that when we bring meaning to life’s (sometimes) unbearable circumstances or challenges, we emerge stronger. As a counsellor in training, I hope to guide others to tap into their courageous self and embark on a transformative journey together, filled with curiosity, humour, and acceptance. I use an existential lens and have experience working with children and youth from the ages of 4 to 18 in a sports environment with a focus on mental athletic performance. However, I welcome anyone seeking support from all walks of life. I hope to be a guide as you take this courageous step towards healing, growing, and nurturing yourself.
