My approach to therapy is thoughtful, collaborative, and grounded in the understanding that major life transitions can quietly reshape the way we see ourselves.
Many of the women and families I work with are navigating relocation, cultural adjustment, relationship strain, identity shifts, or the emotional weight of constantly adapting to change. Often, they have spent years supporting everyone around them while losing connection with themselves in the process.
My work is informed by both professional training and personal experience living abroad and navigating those transitions firsthand. That lived understanding allows me to recognize the emotional complexity behind experiences that are often difficult to explain from the outside.
I use evidence-based approaches including cognitive behavioural therapy and solution-focused therapy, but I do not believe healing happens through rigid frameworks alone. Therapy should feel human, collaborative, and responsive to your actual life and circumstances.
This is not a space where you need to minimize your experience, justify your exhaustion, or convince someone that your struggles are valid.
Our work together is about creating steadiness, clarity, self-understanding, and a stronger connection to yourself within seasons of change.
What a session looks like.
Before
We meet on a secure video link. I ask what's bringing you here. You tell me what's true for you right now. There's no questionnaire, no intake form to fill out beforehand. The conversation is the intake.
During
Sessions are 50 minutes, or 75 for couples and family. I take notes for myself, not for any record you'll be asked about later. We work in the present tense. We name what's there. We figure out what's next, together.
The Experiences That Often Bring People Here
If your life has been shaped around someone else's career, visibility, or movement through the world, you may know how easy it is to lose your own sense of grounding in the process.
This work supports the emotional weight that often exists quietly beneath relocation, public identity, constant adaptation, and the pressure to keep everything steady for everyone else.

I know what it means to begin again in unfamiliar places, and to slowly create steadiness inside them.
