Therapist Overview
I believe in an interpersonal approach to talk therapy that is inclusive of the physical, mental and social vulnerabilities a person may be experiencing. Often, we struggle to see ourselves and others clearly and are looking for the opportunity to be introspective, and insight-oriented therapy may be the answer. Importantly, I recognize and consider cultural and spiritual beliefs, social roles, and personal relationships, which are all factors often proven to lead to depression, anxiety and other mood disorders. The therapistās role is to assist people to understand themselves better and to offer them ways to ask themselves the right questions.

This can lead them to do their own, personal persuading in action, internally or externally. Creating a safe, nonjudgmental space is a priority, with mindfulness and self-compassion principles in the forefront of the relationship.
