WHAT I OFFER
 Psychotherapy and Coaching for Adults in Ottawa and around the world.
I am a Registered Psychotherapist (Qualifying) offering relational, trauma-informed psychotherapy and coaching for adults who feel overwhelmed, over-adapted, or worn down by the effort of managing themselves in daily life.

My work is especially suited for thoughtful, capable adults who carry responsibility well outwardly but feel internally strained, divided, or exhausted.

HOW WE HELP
 We work at the pace your nervous system can sustain.
Rather than rushing to diagnose or solve, we slow down and listen carefully to patterns that developed for good reasons earlier in life. Many of the strategies that now feel costly once helped you survive, succeed, or belong.
Together, we focus on:
• Increasing emotional regulation and nervous system stability
• Understanding attachment patterns and relational dynamics
• Reducing anxiety, stress, and chronic activation
• Working through trauma gently and incrementally
• Clarifying values and direction during life transitions
• Strengthening decision-making without self-abandonment
• Rebuilding internal coherence when life feels fragmented
This is collaborative work. You are not analyzed from a distance. We think together.

BENEFITS OF THIS WORK
 Clients often experience:
• Greater emotional steadiness
• Improved capacity to think clearly under pressure
• Reduced self-criticism and internal fragmentation
• Stronger boundaries and relational confidence
• More aligned decision-making
• Increased sense of direction and integrity

Therapy is not about becoming someone new.It is about becoming more coherent as yourself.

APPROACH
 • Relational and attachment-based
• Trauma-informed and paced
• Emphasis on emotional safety and regulation
• Integrates psychotherapy and coaching
• Grounded in deep listening

I draw from attachment-based and trauma-informed frameworks, with strong emphasis on nervous system regulation and relational depth.
