My background encompasses working with individuals of all ages and addressing a wide range of conditions. I find fulfilment in supporting my clients in ways that enhance their lives and improve their overall well-being.
I use Cognitive Behaviour Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Dialectical Behavioural Therapy, Interpersonal Therapy and Solution Focussed Therapy in my work. I am also open to integrating other therapeutic methods as needed.
