I’m trained and experienced in supporting clients feeling anxious, depressed, in crisis, going through a life transition and/or stuck. In addition, here are a few areas I have an affinity for.
Topics
Sexuality
I help clients feel into and explore their sexuality and sexual identity, as well as offering support for those looking to expand their communication skills. Grounded in sex-positivity, I have experience working with clients across the sexual spectrum, from heterosexual to queer folks, BDSMers, and non-monogamous ways of expressing sexuality.
Abuse and Interpersonal Trauma
With six years experience as a counsellor at anti-sexual violence organisations in Canada and New Zealand, I am deeply committed to supporting survivors of childhood sexual abuse and adult sexual assault. My approach is survivor-centric, trauma-informed and feminist, and I have a nuanced understanding of the shame, grief and self-blame survivors may feel.
Climate-Aware Therapy
Eco-anxiety, eco-grief, solastalgia; these are all words to describe the immense psychological challenge of trying to keep our eyes and hearts wide open to ecological catastrophe facing us. This can manifest as feelings of anxiety, grief, fear, numbness or lack of feeling, burn-out, helplessness and loneliness. I support you to explore even the scariest thoughts and feelings through containment and validation, growing your capacity to stay present and engaged with the existential crises upon us.
Grief and Loss
Pain and grief are part of life, of deeply loving people, animals and places dear to us. As a witness and companion in your grief, I work alongside you to reduce your suffering, holding space for you to mourn what you’ve lost without trying to fix or solve your feelings.
