Therapy & Coaching

The journey of healing holds the key to your full potential.

☆ Are you navigating through a maze of overwhelming emotions, feeling lost amidst stress, anxiety, or feeling a sense of disconnection in your life?

☆ Does your mind often feel like a relentless whirlwind, leaving you yearning for clarity, purpose, or simply a state of peace with yourself?

☆ In the hustle of life, where burnout, stress, and anxiety loom large, the path ahead can seem daunting and unclear.

In our therapeutic space, you'll find a sanctuary to skillfully confront these challenges. With an approach rooted in mindfulness, empathy and understanding, I am here to offer unwavering support as you master the intricacies of your relationships, delve into the depths of self-exploration, and find inner healing. Together, we'll unlock your innate strength, guiding you towards living the life you envision.

Psychotherapy, at its heart, is a transformative journey—a courageous shift from the familiar to the unexplored— an endeavour that takes courage, commitment and compassionate self-care.

★ My expertise lies in nurturing interpersonal relationships, addressing attachment issues, guiding through self-exploration, managing stress and burnout, achieving work-life harmony, navigating life transitions, and exploring existential queries.

Embark on this journey of self-discovery, healing, and mindful existence with me. Let us unveil the myriad of possibilities within you and chart a course to a more fulfilling, balanced life.

I invite you to reach out for a complimentary 30-minute consultation call.

Take this step towards embracing the change and growth awaiting you.

 FAQs

  • Your first session is primarily about understanding your needs and concerns. It's an opportunity for us to get to know each other, discuss your goals for therapy, how we can work together to achieve them, and begin our journey.

  • Each session typically lasts 50 minutes. However, this can be adjusted according to your needs and the specifics of our therapeutic plan.

  • The frequency of sessions depends on your unique circumstances and goals. Some clients benefit from weekly sessions, while others may need less frequent meetings. We'll determine the right frequency for you together.

  • Absolutely. Confidentiality is a cornerstone of therapy. What we discuss in sessions will remain private, with the exception of certain legal and ethical obligations to report, which we'll discuss in our first session.

  • I do not bill insurance directly. I take payment directly through my booking system, Jane, using a credit/debit card. You will receive a receipt via email which you can submit to your insurance if you have coverage. We'll discuss all costs and payment options during our initial consultation to ensure clarity and transparency.

  • Yes, I offer teletherapy sessions via secure video conferencing platforms, allowing you to access therapy from the comfort of your own space.

  • Therapy is beneficial for anyone seeking to explore their thoughts, feelings, and behaviours, work through challenging life situations and relationships, or improve their mental health and well-being. If you're uncertain, I encourage you to schedule a free consultation call to discuss your specific needs and concerns.

  • I integrate a range of techniques tailored to your individual needs, including techniques like Mindfulness-based therapy, Compassion Focused Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Somatic-Attachment Therapy, and Relational Therapy. These methods are evidence-based and proven effective for a variety of concerns.

  • Come as you are. It's helpful to think about your goals for therapy and any questions you might have beforehand. Beyond that, no special preparation is needed.

  • If you're in immediate danger or experiencing a crisis, please call emergency services or go to your nearest emergency room and/or call 911. I am not a crisis counselor, and while therapy can be very helpful, it's not a substitute for emergency care.
