About Me

I use an approach that is warm, caring, collaborative, and unique to you. Utilizing emotion, identity affirming and mindfulness based approaches help us to create meaningful change in your life. I bring my perspective as a young gay counsellor to my therapy approach, supported by my supervisors over 30 years experience, a youthful LGBTQ+ perspective backed by long-term experience.

My Specialty

My speciality is working with young adults, students & LGBTQ+ individuals, to help them feel heard, supported, and moving in a positive direction towards their goals. My counselling balances solution and goal focused change, with support and compassion. I use a holistic approach to counselling which integrates multiple therapeutic frameworks, primarily emotion focused, solution focused, mindfulness, and cognitive behavioural. My approach to counselling also takes into consideration both who the client is and the nature of their primary goal.

This approach lends itself to my specialty which is working with individuals to help them understand their emotions and thoughts. My approach is best for those who are looking to better understand who themselves and/or those who are interested in learning the tools to help them better navigate their lives.

If you have any questions about me or my specialty I invite you to book a free 15 minute consult, and we can discuss if my specialty is a good fit for you.
