Virtual counselling for women. One of my specialties is working with Highly Sensitive People (HSP's) on how to regulate their overwhelming emotions and move through them quicker. I also help empathetic women heal from narcissistic abuse and support them through family estrangement. You may even have anxiety, depression, and low self worth and are wanting to learn how to be assertive, set boundaries and put your needs first without feeling guilty! My goal is for you to become confident and empowered while getting as much value out of each session as possible! Email me for a free 15 minute consultation.

Treatment Approach
- Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) One of the most widely used approaches, CBT helps people identify unhelpful thoughts and replace them with healthier patterns. It is effective for anxiety, depression, and many other concerns.
- Compassion-Focused Therapy (CFT) Builds skills in self-kindness and compassion toward others. It is especially helpful for people who struggle with shame or self-criticism.
- Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT) Focuses on strengthening emotional bonds in couples or families. It helps people identify negative cycles and create more secure connections.
- Feminist Therapy Addresses how gender roles, power, and social inequality affect mental health. It empowers clients to challenge limiting beliefs and systems.
- Solution-Focused Brief Therapy (SFBT) Focuses on solutions and future goals rather than past problems. It is practical, short-term, and goal-driven.
Approach Description: My approach is Integrative. I draw from Psychodynamic Therapy, as it’s important to go back and heal family of origin issues that are causing problems in the present. Also, mindfulness therapy to retrain your brain and help with anxiety and depression. Cognitive behavioural therapy when needed and solution focused as well. I like to provide as many tools and techniques as I can to help you in your healing journey.

I became a therapist because I know what it is like to be in emotional pain and suffer from narcissistic abuse. I want you to know healing is possible. I work in a very compassionate way, as an HSP (Highly Sensitive Person) I am very gentle in my approach. If you are looking for support through family estrangement I can help you as well. I care deeply about my clients and strive for them to get the best results. I don’t only offer talk therapy, I provide many tools for you to be able use in between sessions. My goal is for you to feel heard, understood, validated and empowered after working with me. Feel free to contact me today for a free 15 minute consultation to see if we are a good fit.
