Individual Therapy For Adults
Therapy is a space where you don’t have to perform, hold everything together, or pretend you’re fine. I work with adults who are navigating emotional overwhelm, anger, shame, burnout, relationship stress, and the aftereffects of trauma.
Sessions are online/phone, flexible, and grounded in a trauma‑informed, client‑centred approach. You set the pace. You decide what we explore. My role is to help you understand what’s happening beneath the surface, make sense of your patterns, and build tools that actually work in real life.
What Therapy Looks Like
Therapy with me is collaborative and direct. You won’t be expected to perform, hold everything together, or arrive with everything figured out. We slow things down, look at what’s actually happening in your body and mind, and make sense of the patterns that keep showing up.
You set the pace. You decide what we go near and when. My role is to help you understand your responses, build emotional regulation tools that work in real life, and create clarity around what you want moving forward.
Sessions are structured but flexible, grounded in trauma‑informed practice, and focused on helping you feel more steady, more clear, and more in control of your story.
What I Help With
Emotional Overwhelm
When everything feels “too much,” your nervous system is trying to protect you. We’ll slow things down, understand what’s underneath the intensity, and build tools that help you feel more steady and in control.
Shame & Self‑Worth
Shame convinces you that you’re the problem — but it’s usually a response to past experiences, expectations, or pressure. Together, we’ll untangle where it comes from and rebuild a more grounded sense of self.
Burnout & Chronic Stress
Burnout isn’t a personal failure — it’s a sign you’ve been carrying more than any one person should. We’ll explore the patterns that keep you in survival mode and create strategies that support actual recovery.
Boundaries & People‑Pleasing
If you’ve spent years prioritizing others, saying “no” can feel impossible. We’ll work on boundaries that feel doable, honest, and aligned with your values — without guilt or fear of conflict.
Trauma & Its Aftereffects
Trauma shows up in patterns, reactions, and emotional reflexes. You don’t need to retell everything for healing to happen. We’ll focus on understanding your responses and building safety, clarity, and choice.
Relationships & Communication
Whether you’re navigating conflict, emotional distance, or communication breakdowns, we’ll explore what’s happening beneath the surface and build skills that support healthier, more grounded connection.
