I am trained in psychodynamic psychotherapy, which is a traditional talk-based therapy. I also incorporate mindfulness, somatic awareness exercises and DBT (dialectical behaviour therapy) for a more holistic approach to support your wellness.
I embrace that the symptoms you are experiencing are part of a larger whole. Together, we can work to create meaning and clarity for you, on a mental, emotional and spiritual level.
Our sessions are informed by your unique position within time, culture and the fabric of our society. I am 2SLGBTQIA+ aligned, ENM informed, culturally sensitive and work from a harm reduction, anti-capitalist, feminist lens.
I specialize in supporting those who are struggling with self-esteem, depression, anxiety, people pleasing, life transitions, identity issues, substance use, as well as borderline personality disorder (BPD).
As a practitioner and follower of alternative spirituality, I can also offer support for those struggling with spiritual concerns and transpersonal experiences through use of symbolism, synchronicity and archetypal inquiry.
Astrological Psychotherapy
Astrology has the potential to deepen an individual’s sense of self and provide a broader spectrum for self-expression. By viewing oneself as part of a larger whole, it is possible to achieve an increased sense of meaning and purpose.
I take a spiritually integrated approach to astrological psychotherapy. In these sessions, we can bring in astrological language and symbolism alongside other established modalities and evidence-based interventions. I will always work with your level of understanding of astrology and the ways in which it is relevant to your life.
For clients who are not astro-literate, I can use the chart to inform the way I work with you, but may not bring the language directly into our sessions.
I do not offer predictive work or give “readings” in psychotherapy sessions but can assist you in processing what you are going through from an astrological lens.
