I am a registered Psychologist, who is passionate about mental health and creating space for discomfort. 

As someone who has always been drawn to people and stories, psychology seemed like a natural direction. Our internal world is formed by our experiences and history and how we make meaning of them, which then informs our reality. It fascinated me how speaking and language could literally shift our perception and brain activity!

I am trained in Cognitive Behavioural Therapy and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy. I resonate with a values-based, mindful approach to managing the mind and its thoughts/emotions. I have also recently completed EMDR training (the ‘gold standard’ in PTSD treatment and working with trauma).

I mainly work with adolescents & adults presenting with anxiety, trauma, relationship issues, self-esteem/body image, and depression.

Tuning into clients needs and tailored treatment is important to me, and I work alongside clients to find a long-term approach to RE-Cognize and manage unhelpful patterns in their lives.
