About My Clients
Beyond being compassionate, empathetic, and warm, you want a therapist who is straight to the point and effective. You are ready to do the hard work of wading through the quagmire of imposter syndrome, negative self concept and doubt so you can move on with your life and career with the greatest amount of joy and ease. You are also looking for the best and fastest ways of healing your trauma wounds without compromising your depth of healing.
My Background and Approach
With over two decades of experience as a psychotherapist, I have worked with a variety of populations and issues. I began as a generalist in a children's community mental health centre that exposed me to a variety of very human challenges. Currently, my expertise focuses on high performing professionals who are looking to move ahead in their career by shedding all the inner turmoil that makes it difficult to progress forward in their lives. My speciality is helping you navigate all areas of your life in practical ways, helping you balance the personal with the professional in ways that are fulfilling and meaningful for you. As someone who works in the corporate sector, I understand the nuances of managing power, power dynamics and office politics to help you create solutions that bring ease and a thriving into your life. Many of my clients come to me with issues of: trauma recovery, confidence, imposter syndrome, relationships, burnout, depression, and work-life balance.
My Personal Beliefs and Interests
Much of my personal beliefs about therapy have come from training in brief, solution-focused, and walk-in clinical settings. I strongly believe therapy does not have to be long-term to be impactful. My clients think of me in the same way they think of their doctor - they come in for regular check-ins and for more frequent sessions when they are needing more support. Therapy is not meant to make life perfect and free of all issues that might get you stuck. The purpose of therapy is to get you reoriented to your own strengths, gifts and abilities - get you standing confidently on your own feet and moving in the right direction. As a result, I focus on very practical skills and targeted strategies that help you have different and more empowering thoughts about what you are capable of. My clients generally begin with more frequent sessions and then move to a less frequent schedule. Connect with me for a free 30 min consultation and let's see what we can accomplish together.
