Discover the range of evidence-based therapies and techniques available to support your healing journey

Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT)

CBT explores how your thoughts directly influence your emotions and physical sensations, which in turn drive your behaviors. By understanding these connections, we can work together to identify and modify patterns that may be causing distress or unwanted outcomes in your life.

Psychodynamic Therapy

This approach delves into the unconscious mind to uncover how past experiences and hidden thoughts may be influencing your current behaviors and emotional responses. By bringing these patterns into awareness, we can address root causes of present-day challenges.

Person-Centered Therapy

Also known as client-centered counseling, this approach honors your inherent worth and wisdom. Through unconditional positive regard and genuine acceptance, this therapy helps you develop greater self-awareness and authentic self-acceptance.

Mindfulness Techniques

Mindfulness practices help you develop a deeper awareness of your emotions, thoughts, and bodily sensations in the present moment. These techniques enhance overall well-being and provide valuable tools for managing stress and emotional regulation.

Creative Therapy

Using various art materials including paints, clay, miniature figures, and other creative media, this approach allows for non-verbal expression and communication. Creative therapy can provide unique insights into emotions, experiences, and inner conflicts that may be difficult to express through words alone.

Sound & Listening Technologies

Specialized therapeutic sound interventions, including Unyte SSP protocols, work alongside traditional therapy to support your nervous system's response to current or historical trauma. These evidence-based sound technologies help regulate your autonomic nervous system for enhanced healing.

Parts & Inner Child Work

This approach helps you understand and heal wounded aspects of yourself that may be influencing your current relationships and responses. By acknowledging and integrating these parts, you can reduce internal conflict and develop greater self-compassion.

Polyvagal-Informed Trauma Therapy

Using insights from polyvagal theory, we work with your nervous system's natural responses to safety and danger cues. This approach helps rebalance your autonomic nervous system so it can respond appropriately to current situations rather than reacting from past trauma patterns.

Integrated Counselling and Psychotherapy

I am trained in all of the therapeutic modalities listed above, which allows us to work together to determine which approaches—or combination of approaches—will be most beneficial for your unique situation.

Your therapy is always a collaborative, choice-based process where your preferences, comfort level, and therapeutic goals guide our work together. This integrative approach ensures that your treatment is tailored specifically to your needs and circumstances.

Whatever modality we employ, it is always worth the investment in time and resources to find a considered way forward.

It is truly never too late …
