Therapy is a personal journey, and it looks different for everyone. These questions are here to help you feel more comfortable as you take the next step toward creating the life you truly want. Take your time — when you’re ready, feel free to send me a note...
What is your approach to therapy?
My approach is grounded in connection above all else. I understand how overwhelming it can feel searching for the right therapist. While experience, training, and ethical practice are crucial, finding someone you truly click with is at the heart of the work. It’s the key to growth and lasting change.
​
I offer deep empathy, warmth, and just the right amount of challenge and humour. Together, we can explore your story and find the path that works best for you, moving at your pace.
​
How do I know if therapy is right for me?
Deciding to begin therapy can feel like standing at the edge of a quiet, untraveled path. If something inside you says ~ I need support ~ that’s enough. Therapy can be a space to pause, reflect, and move toward greater peace, no matter where you are on your journey.
​
What kind of issues do you work with?
I work with a wide range of topics and struggles, from personal growth, anxiety, and self-esteem issues, to more specific challenges like navigating grief, breakups, or life transitions. If something is weighing on your heart or mind, I’m here to listen and offer guidance, as you need it to be.
​
What if I don’t feel ready to talk about something?
You’re never obligated to talk about anything before you’re ready. Therapy is about meeting you where you are, and we’ll move at your pace. Sometimes, it’s helpful just to be heard, and we’ll follow your lead in every step. There’s no pressure to speak on anything that doesn’t feel safe for you yet.
​
What if I’m nervous about starting?
Starting therapy can feel like stepping into the unknown, and it’s completely normal to feel nervous. The space here is safe, calm, and free of judgement. You don’t have to have it all figured out right now.
​
What will happen during the free introductory call?
The free 20-minute call is like a gentle conversation by the fire — no pressure, no obligation. It’s a chance for you to share a little about what’s been happening in your life and for me to listen. We’ll chat about what you need, and whether I may be the right person to walk alongside you. Think of it as a quiet moment to breathe and reflect before deciding what comes next.
​
What will happen during the first session?
In our first session, we’ll step a little deeper into your story — gently unfolding what’s been troubling you and looking at the road ahead. By the end of our time together, we’ll have a clear sense of where to focus, and we’ll decide together how to move forward. It’s all about finding the right pace for you and the right path to follow.
​
How many sessions will I need?
Many people decide to talk weekly, as having that hour each week guaranteed just for them is invaluable, regardless of what's going on in their life. Others prefer to do more a focused piece work, to address a specific issue or achieve a particular goal, before having a break and returning at a later date. Regardless of what you need, often beginning with a ‘block’ of six to eight sessions can be a great place to start. Once we have established a strong working relationship, I offer ‘drop-in’ sessions, there for when something crops up and you need to talk.
