Psychotherapy for the deeper work of becoming yourself.
There are times in life when the ways we've understood ourselves no longer seem to fit.
Perhaps you're moving through a transition, questioning your identity, struggling with patterns that keep repeating, or simply sensing that something within you is asking to be understood differently.
You may be functioning well on the outside while feeling unsettled, disconnected, conflicted or unsure of what comes next.
Therapy can offer a place to slow down and become curious about what is happening beneath the surface—not simply to manage what's difficult, but to understand yourself more deeply.
I work with individuals and couples who want to explore the complexities of being human: identity, relationships, meaning, desire, change, grief, patterns and the different parts of ourselves that shape how we move through the world.
My approach draws from Internal Family Systems (IFS), existential psychotherapy, depth-oriented and somatic approaches. Together, we explore both the experiences that bring you to therapy and the deeper questions underneath them.
When life is asking you to become someone new
Some transitions are obvious. Others happen quietly.
A relationship changes. Motherhood changes you. Your children grow and you find yourself wondering who you are beyond the role you've inhabited for so long. Your body changes. Your career or relationships no longer feel quite right. A diagnosis gives you a new lens through which to understand yourself. You reach a point where the life you've built doesn't feel wrong—but it doesn't feel entirely like yours anymore.
Sometimes there is no obvious transition at all. You simply find yourself asking different questions.
Who am I now?
What do I actually want?
Why do I keep finding myself in these patterns?
How do I want to live?
What parts of myself have I had to leave behind?
What might become possible if I understood myself differently?
These are not always questions that can be answered by simply thinking harder.
They can be explored.
A PLACE TO SLOW DOWN AND LOOK BENEATH THE SURFACE
My work is grounded in the belief that our struggles often make more sense when we understand the experiences, relationships, beliefs and protective patterns that shaped us.
Through IFS and depth-oriented work, we can become curious about the different parts of you—those that strive, protect, please, withdraw, criticize, control or long for something different.

Through existential exploration, we can make space for questions of identity, freedom, responsibility, meaning, mortality, connection and what it means to live a life that feels authentically your own.
And through a somatic lens, we can pay attention to the ways your experiences live not only in your thoughts and stories, but also in your body.
The goal isn't to become a different person.
It is to develop a deeper understanding of yourself, greater compassion for the parts of you that have helped you survive and adapt, and more freedom in deciding how you want to move forward.
WHO I WORK WITH
I work with adults and couples navigating a wide range of concerns and life experiences.
I have particular experience supporting women through significant transitions, including the transitions of motherhood, midlife and menopause, as well as women navigating ADHD, identity, relationships and the changing demands of their lives.
I also work with people who simply feel ready to explore themselves at a deeper level—whether or not there is a specific diagnosis or life crisis bringing them to therapy.
You don't need to have everything figured out before beginning.
You just need a willingness to become curious.
If you're looking for a space to slow down, explore what is beneath the surface and develop a deeper relationship with yourself, I'd be honoured to work with you.
