EMDR Therapy • Cognitive Behaviour Therapy

My approach is grounded in warmth and understanding, ensuring every session is individually tailored to help you move from feeling stuck in reactivity to responding more mindfully.

How I Can Help:

    I provide a compassionate space to support you in working through traumatic memories and experiences.

    Anxiety, Stress & Phobias

    Living with anxiety and worry can be isolating and exhausting — I can work with you to reduce overwhelming thoughts and feelings, break unhelpful patterns, and build strategies to help you feel calmer and more in control.

    Depression & Low Mood

    When everything feels heavy and motivation fades, gentle support can help you in your recovery journey.

    Grief, Loss & Bereavement

    There is no timeline for loss, and your pain is valid — this is a place where your grief can be held and shared with care.

    Perinatal & Pregnancy Support

    Expecting or new motherhood can bring with it complex and often unexpected emotions — I can support you in managing anxiety, depression, attachment issues and birth trauma.

    Work Cover & Work-Related Injuries

    I can offer compassionate support in your recovery from work-related stress and trauma.

    This can be the psychological impact from accidents & physical injuries, as well as the non-physical injuries that can occur in demanding or unsupportive workplace environments.

    Support for Veterans & Their Families

    As an Open Arms Outreach Provider, I offer a range of supports that can be tailored to the unique challenges faced by veterans and their families.

    Self-Esteem & Personal Growth

    Building a healthier relationship with yourself is possible — I can support you in identifying limiting beliefs and behaviours that may no longer serve you.

    With evidence-based techniques like EMDR and CBT, you can develop more mindful ways to relate to yourself and others.
