“Vulnerability is not winning or losing; it's having the courage to show up and be seen when we have no control over the outcome.

Vulnerability is not weakness; it's our greatest measure of courage.”

Brené Brown

approach

I take a humanistic, non-pathologising approach — meaning I don’t see people as “problems to be fixed,” but as beautifully complex humans with stories, layers, and the occasional plot twist.

 

Every client brings a universe of experiences, and I show up as my authentic, usually curious, always compassionate self to meet you there.

​

My practice is proudly neurodivergent and LGBTQIA+ affirming — because being yourself shouldn’t feel like swimming against the current.

​

Over the years, I’ve journeyed with adolescents and adults through all sorts of life stuff:


📚 academic stress,
🧠 navigating neurodivergence (autism, ADHD, dyslexia, and more),
🏠 complicated family dynamics,
🌙 sleep issues,
🔄 big life transitions,
💞 messy relationships, and
🌈 exploring gender identity, expression, and sexuality.

​

I’ve also worked with professionals from academia, finance, legal, education, media, and biomedical fields who were juggling anxiety, burnout, perfectionism, imposter syndrome, identity shifts, and the perennial “what am I doing with my life?” question.

 

At the heart of my work is creating a space where you can be your full, unfiltered self — free to talk, feel, question, cry, laugh, and just be.

​

I’ve trained in topics like gender and sexuality development, minority stress, and LGBTQIA+ mental health, and I also support parents wanting to better understand or guide their teens through these journeys.

​

No matter how big or small your challenges feel, I’ll walk beside you — helping you unpack, name, and make sense of your story (with empathy, not judgment).

​​

The human side of me: I’ve been a vegetarian for over a decade, a proud advocate for climate action and animal rights, and the humble servant of one very spoiled cat, Willow. When I’m not counselling, I’m probably tending to my sun-loving plants, who seem to be doing better at self-care than most of us. 🌞🌿

​

I’m also a passionate cook of mood-boosting meals, an enthusiastic (if slightly splashy) swimmer, and a gym girlie on a humble quest to conquer her first pull-up. 🥦🏊‍♀️
