​As a calm, empathetic, and collaborative psychologist, I aim to create a therapeutic space where clients feel genuinely supported, heard, and empowered. My approach is grounded in building authentic connections and tailoring therapy to meet the unique needs and goals of each individual. I have experience working with clients across the lifespan in both university and private practice settings.
​
I am particularly passionate about supporting children, adolescents, and adults navigating a range of psychological challenges, including:

• Mood and anxiety disorders
• Emotional regulation difficulties
• Neurodevelopmental conditions, such as ADHD and Autism

​In my work with neurodiverse individuals, I adopted a Neurodiversity-Affirming approach, celebrating and embracing individual differences. I believe in a collaborative and holistic framework to help each client discover their strengths and move toward their goals with confidence and clarity.

My therapeutic practice integrates evidence-based approaches, including:

• Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) – a structured method that helps clients reshape unhelpful thinking patterns, build skills, and engage in more meaningful behaviours.
• Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) – a values-based approach that encourages psychological flexibility and empowers clients to respond to challenges with openness and self-compassion.

Through a combination of these methods, I strive to support clients in developing self-awareness, resilience, and emotional balance, guiding them toward a more fulfilling and purpose-driven life.
