My Approach
Every person is unique—so therapy should be, too. I offer an integrative approach, drawing from different modalities based on your needs, preferences, and goals. Below you’ll find some of the approaches we may use together.
I believe therapy is not about “fixing” you—it’s about creating space to truly listen inward and honour all parts of who you are. My style is collaborative, strength-based, and trauma-informed. In sessions, you can expect compassion, warmth, and respect for your pace.
Depending on your needs, we may draw from:
- Internal Family Systems (IFS) to honour and heal your inner parts
- CBT to shift unhelpful thought patterns
- Mindfulness to help you find calm and clarity
- Sensorimotor Psychotherapy to support trauma healing through somatic work
Internal Family Systems (IFS)
IFS is based on the idea that we all have different “parts” within us—some that carry pain, others that protect, and others that hold joy and wisdom. In therapy, we learn to listen to and honour these parts with compassion, leading to greater self-understanding and healing.
Best for: trauma, self-esteem, inner conflict, and self-discovery.
Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT)
CBT helps identify and shift unhelpful patterns of thinking and behaviour. Together, we explore the connections between your thoughts, feelings, and actions, and work toward practical tools that support resilience and well-being.
Best for: anxiety, depression, stress, and building healthier coping strategies.
Mindfulness Practices
Mindfulness encourages you to slow down, notice what is happening in the present moment, and bring kindness to your experience. These practices can help reduce stress, regulate emotions, and create space for calm and clarity in your everyday life.
Best for: stress management, emotional regulation, and grounding.
Sensorimotor Psychotherapy
Trauma often lives in the body as well as the mind. Sensorimotor Psychotherapy is a body-based approach that helps process trauma safely by paying attention to physical sensations, movement, and the nervous system. This allows for deeper healing beyond words alone.
Best for: trauma recovery, PTSD, and body-based symptoms of stress.
