About

I meet you where you are at so that we can start untangling the interlocking webs to see what feels too hard to face by yourself and too big to feel alone. I support folk as they navigate their responses to their suffering, and help them find new ways of exploring and understanding their experiences. I specialise in anxiety, mood disorders (including bipolar I and II), executive dysfunction, obsessions and compulsions, disordered eating, complex trauma, and body image concerns, and support folk who feel stuck in their patterns of thinking and feeling. Using a trauma-informed, anti-oppressive approach, I support folk as they explore the deeper roots behind their feelings and actions, while also learning tools that make the day-to-day easier. I have extensive experience helping people navigate experiences of trauma — including trauma related to family, race, immigration, and gender-based violence.
