relationships, and ways of protecting ourselves that once made sense. Therapy offers a space to

slow down, become curious about those patterns, and discover new ways of relating to yourself and others.

My approach is warm, collaborative, and grounded in relational psychodynamic psychotherapy,

while drawing from evidence-based approaches such as Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT),

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), alongside existential perspectives, when they support your goals. I see therapy as more than symptom reduction—it is an opportunity to deepen self-understanding, build emotional resilience, and live with greater freedom and

intention.

Special Interests

Outside the therapy room, I have a longstanding love of fitness, film, literature, music, and

philosophy. I have also volunteered as a facilitator supporting adults in addiction recovery at

Bellwood Health Services. When meaningful, these interests can become part of our work

together, offering meaningful ways to understand experiences that can be difficult to put into

words and, ultimately, live with greater freedom and intention.
