How I Work

As a neurodivergent counsellor, I know what it’s like to move through the world feeling “too much,” “not enough,” or simply out of step with the systems around you. My practice is built on creating a space where you don’t have to mask, explain, or shrink yourself to be understood.

Counselling with me isn’t just about talking through problems—it’s about working with your whole self. So much of what we carry shows up not only in our thoughts, but also in our body and nervous system. That’s why therapy here weaves together mind, body, and soul, creating space for healing that feels real and sustainable.

Together, we might:

  • Explore the parts of you that feel anxious, protective, or overwhelmed—helping them find new ways of being.

  • Notice how stress and trauma live in the body, and use gentle somatic tools to restore balance and regulation.

  • Build a sense of safety and trust in relationship, so healing doesn’t feel forced but unfolds at your pace.

This process is collaborative. You bring your lived experience; I bring tools from trauma-informed, somatic, and attachment-based approaches. Our aim isn’t perfection—it’s helping you feel more grounded, connected, and at home in yourself.

At the heart of my neuro-affirming practice is the belief that you already hold the wisdom for your own healing. Therapy simply helps you uncover and embody it, so you can move toward a life that feels more authentic, fulfilling, and aligned with who you really are.

At our neuro-affirming practice, we use psychotherapeutic methods to treat the whole self, helping you to create a more fulfilling and empowered life.
