My Approach to Therapy

Therapy can be a powerful space for reflection, growth, and building the skills needed to navigate life’s challenges. Whether you're looking to better understand yourself, improve emotional regulation, or move through a period of transition, my role is to guide you through it.

My approach is collaborative and forward-focused, with an emphasis on helping you create meaningful and sustainable change. While our work may involve processing past experiences and emotions, the focus is often on helping you build insight, develop skills, and move toward your goals.

My areas of focus include:

• Building resilience and coping skills

• Exploring and strengthening emotional intelligence

• Managing stress and preventing or recovering from burnout

• Navigating difficult conversations and improving communication

• Managing life transitions, such as career shifts, relationship loss, and identity changes

• Emotional regulation

I take an integrative approach and tailor each session to your unique needs and preferences. Some of the evidence-based modalities I draw from include:

• Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) – to support values-based action and psychological flexibility

• Solution-Focused Brief Therapy (SFBT) – to help clarify goals and move toward change

• Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) – to examine and shift unhelpful thought patterns

• Dialectical Behavioural Therapy (DBT) – to build emotional regulation and interpersonal effectiveness

Above all, my goal is to create a space where you feel heard, supported, and empowered to make the changes that are most meaningful to you.
