How I Support You
I use a blend of evidence-based modalities to help you process trauma and build lasting resilience. We work together to create a path that feels grounded and sustainable for your unique life.
Trauma-Informed Care
I prioritize your safety and pace, recognizing how past experiences shape your present. This approach helps us gently unpack difficult patterns without overwhelming your system, especially when working through anxiety or burnout.
Cognitive Behavioural Therapy
Together, we look at the patterns between your thoughts, emotions, and behaviours. CBT offers practical tools for understanding what's keeping you stuck and helps you create shifts that feel realistic and sustainable in your day-to-day life.
Somatic & Experiential
We pay attention to what your body is telling us: your breath, tension, impulses, and sensations. These approaches help you reconnect with your nervous system, build regulation, and access insight that doesn't always come through words alone.
Narrative Therapy
We explore the stories you've carried, including where they came from, how they've shaped you, and which ones no longer fit. Narrative work helps you reclaim you voice, understand your identity with more compassion, and create new meanings that support who you're becoming.
Humanistic/Person-Centered
This approach centres you as the expert of your own life. I offer warmth, authenticity, and attuned presence so you can explore your experiences without judgment. The relationship itself becomes a space for healing, clarify, and deeper self-connection.
Emotion-Focused Therapy
We work with your emotions as valuable signals rather than problems to fix. By slowing down and tuning into what you feel, we uncover unmet needs, shift old emotional patterns, and build a more compassionate relationship with yourself.
The Path to Lasting Change
Lasting change happens when we slow down enough to understand what's happening beneath the surface; in your emotions, your body, and the patterns you've carried for years. In our work, we explore these layers gently and intentionally, creating space for insight, regulation, and new ways of relating to yourself. This process supports meaningful shifts in anxiety, burnout, and emotional overwhelm, helping you move towrad a life that feels steadier, more connected, and more authentic.
How We Work Together
Healing isn't one-size-fits-all. I integrate these evidence-based approaches to create a path that feels grounded in your unique experiences and goals for lasting change.
Navigating Anxiety with Trauma-Informed Care
For anxiety that feels constant or overwhelming, we use a trauma‑informed lens to understand what your nervous system is trying to protect you from. Instead of only managing symptoms, we explore the deeper patterns and experiences that keep your body on high alert. By creating a steady, predictable space, we help your system settle so you can finally feel a sense of rest and relief.
Untangling Burnout Through Somatic & Parts Work
Burnout often shows up as feeling drained, disconnected, or like you’re running on empty. Through somatic work, we reconnect with the signals your body has been pushing through for too long — the tension, the fatigue, the urge to shut down. Parts work helps us understand the inner voices that keep you going at all costs, like the perfectionist or the over‑responsible caretaker. Together, we help these parts soften and create space for rest, clarity, and a more sustainable way of moving through your life.
Rewriting Self-Criticism with Narrative Therapy
When you feel stuck in harsh inner stories like “I’m failing,” “I’m not enough,” or “I always mess things up,” narrative work helps us understand where those beliefs came from and why they’ve held on for so long. Together, we gently separate you from these old narratives and explore the experiences that shaped them. Over time, we create space for a more compassionate, grounded story about who you are and what you deserve.
Breaking Overthinking Cycles with CBT
If your mind gets caught in loops, replaying conversations, imagining worst‑case scenarios, or spiraling into self‑doubt, CBT helps us slow down and map out what’s happening beneath the surface. We look at the patterns between your thoughts, emotions, and behaviours and experiment with small, realistic shifts that bring relief. This approach helps quiet the mental noise so you can think more clearly and feel more in control.
Making Sense of Emotional Overwhelm with EFT
When your emotions feel too big, too fast, or confusing, EFT helps us slow down and understand what’s underneath. Instead of pushing feelings away, we explore what they’re trying to communicate and the needs or fears beneath the surface. This process helps you respond to your emotions with clarity and compassion rather than shutting down or getting swept away.
Rebuilding Self-Trust After Years of People Pleasing
If you’ve spent years prioritizing others or doubting your own needs, humanistic work helps you reconnect with your inner voice. In a warm, non‑judgmental space, you get to explore what you truly want and how you actually feel. Over time, this strengthens your sense of self, your boundaries, and your ability to make choices that reflect who you are rather than who you’ve been expected to be.
