Life sometimes gets difficult fast, and at other times it changes slowly until you realise something isn't working for you anymore. Talking to a psychologist can help you cope with those challenges, make sense of what they mean to you, and bring about change. If you decide to work with me, I will first listen carefully to you to understand your experience of what you're going through. From there, we can use evidence-based psychological tools as needed, in a way that makes sense to you. Depending on your goals and preferences, we may use cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT) to explore how your pattern of thoughts, feelings, and behaviours might be keeping you stuck, where that pattern might have come from, and how you can change it. We may also use acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT) to help you develop a new relationship with your thoughts and feelings, so that you feel more free to act in line with what's most important to you. Whatever we use to help you achieve your goals, I will maintain a nonjudgmental and collaborative approach as the foundation. If this sounds good to you, please feel free to reach out.

I also have experience in brief interventions with people from all walks of life, dealing with a range of issues, including anxiety, depression, stress, and relationship challenges.)
