Counseling Psychologist and Psychologist
About me:
Life has a way of throwing sudden changes, stress and emotional uncertainty at us, whether you are dealing with burnout, feeling stuck or trying to navigate complex personal relationships. Reaching out for support isn't a sign that you can't handle things, it's a practical, proactive step toward gaining clarity and feeling like yourself again.
My approach is warm, grounded and deeply interactive. While I hold a Master’s degree in Psychology with a strong foundation in consultative and cognitive principles, I don't treat our sessions like a rigid formula. I focus on genuine human connection, helping you make sense of heavy emotions in a clear, manageable way.
Together, we look at how your thoughts, daily habits and past experiences shape your present reality. Grounded in trauma-informed principles and Polyvagal theory, we’ll build concrete, real-life tools for nervous system and emotional regulation, boundary setting, and healthier communication that you can actually use in your day to day life.
Whether you need a safe space to process daily overwhelm, relief from anxiety or structured guidance to work through a specific challenge, we will go at a pace that feels natural, comfortable and safe for you.
Approach:
Treatment Approaches:
-CBT: Cognitive behavioural therapy
Recommended for those looking for practical support and accountability to change unhelpful thinking and behaviors.
-Counselling
Recommended for those who want to talk through their emotional challenges with a professional in a safe, supportive environment.
-Psychodynamic therapy
Recommended for those looking to explore their emotions deeply and understand how past experiences shape their present life.
My practice is centered on a compassionate, integrative style drawing from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), consultative counseling and psychodynamic principles. I do not believe in rigid, one size fits all formulas. Instead, we look at how your thoughts, habits and past experiences shape your present reality, identifying practical strategies to reduce stress and improve self awareness.
Sessions are interactive, conversational and focused on real life applications. We will work together to build practical tools for emotional regulation, boundary setting and clear communication, giving you concrete strategies you can use in your day to day life.
