Approach<\/h1>\n\n\n\n
\n
\n
My approach is collaborative, trauma-informed, neuro-affirming and evidence-based \u2013 but more than anything, it\u2019s real and human. My work is grounded in:<\/strong><\/h5>\n\n\n\n

\u2022 Deep clinical knowledge of mental health, trauma, and neurodevelopment
\u2022 Compassionate and genuine presence that foster trust, especially when things feel overwhelming
\u2022 A neuro-affirming and culturally respectful lens that celebrates difference
\u2022 Down-to-earth support that helps people heal and grow, while respecting each person\u2019s unique story, pace, choices, and identity
\u2022 Understanding that healing involves more than just mental health but also physical health, social life, and inner beliefs<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

\n
I tailor interventions to suit individual needs, preferences, age, and developmental stage, incorporating theories and therapies such as:<\/strong><\/h5>\n\n\n\n

\u2022 EMDR – a therapy that helps the brain heal from traumatic\/ distressing memories.
\u2022 Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT)
\u2022 Mentalization-Based Therapy (MBT)
\u2022 Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT)
\u2022 Trauma-Informed Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT)
\u2022 Attachment-based Therapy
\u2022 Play-based Therapy
\u2022 Family Therapy
\u2022 Schema Therapy
\u2022 Narrative Therapy
\u2022 Neurodevelopmental and strengths-focused frameworks<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

Whether you’re seeking support for yourself, your child, or your family \u2014 or you’re a professional looking to collaborate, refer or seeking supervision \u2014 I\u2019d love to connect<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n
