My therapeutic practice centres respect, curiosity, and care, and a commitment to honouring and respecting my clients’ diverse life experiences, wisdoms and identities. I trust my clients in their unique capacity for healing and understand my clients as the experts of their own experience.

I am passionate about social justice-oriented therapy that empowers those who experience marginalisation and oppression, and I deeply value de-colonial and First Nations perspectives, understandings, and contexts. I have a special interest in LGBTIQA+ and First Nations advocacy, and endeavour to create a therapeutic environment that is culturally responsive, creative and neuroaffirming. I work with both adolescents and adults.

My therapeutic approach is tailored to each individuals context, however is informed by:

• Narrative Therapy
• Schema Therapy
• Cognitive-Behavioural Therapy (CBT)
• Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT)

I provide support to people in navigating a variety of experiences, including but not limited to:

• Grief, anger, and loss
• Mood and anxiety disorders
• Addressing trauma and intergenerational trauma
• Adjusting to major life changes
• Navigating intimate, social, and family relationships
• Questioning and affirming gender
• Experiences of sex and sexuality
• Experiences of abuse and violence
• Identity conflict and development
• Confidence, self-esteem, and self-compassion
