I am a registered psychotherapist (RP) and my therapy is an invitation for you to work with me in a supportive, caring and non-judgmental environment so that you can connect at a deeper level with your true and authentic being. This, according to Rollo May, “always involves the search for our values and purposes” because without “values there would be only barren despair." I believe that principles of respect, care and knowing are of fundamental importance when we work to support someone who is trying to make a change, realize their abilities, and connect with their own uniqueness and individuality.
I have trained as a psychotherapist in Melbourne and as an Educator in the US. In addition, I have completed 5 years of training in Gestalt Therapy at the Gestalt Institute of Toronto. I feel passionate about working with those who are engaged or wish to engage with the difficult work of emotional healing and growth of their unique human potentials.
Helping you feel safe will be an essential part of our therapy work together so that you can share and tell your truth. Telling your truth can help you become more curious about your anxiety, fear, shame, despair, loneliness, powerlessness, meaninglessness or any experience or emotion that feels difficult, and achieve more personal freedom.
