About me
My journey as a psychotherapist began with a deep fascination for the complexities of the human experience. In addition to my formal training and qualifications, I have dedicated countless hours to volunteering as well as research in various settings. These experiences have allowed me to work with diverse populations and deepen my understanding of the human condition.
Meditation, art, and sound bowls deeply resonate with me as transformative practices for cultivating mindfulness, self-awareness, and inner peace.
These modalities allow individuals to reconnect with their bodies, regulate their emotions, and develop a greater sense of presence.
Drawing upon my own experiences and extensive training, I weave these practices into therapy, empowering clients to develop resilience, balance, and a deeper connection with themselves.

Approach
Treatment Approaches
Art therapyRecommended for those who feel more comfortable expressing emotions through creativity and want to explore their feelings through art rather than talking.
CBT: Cognitive behavioral therapyRecommended for those looking for practical support and accountability to change unhelpful thinking and behaviors.
CFT: Compassion-Focused TherapyRecommended for those who want to be kinder to themselves and reduce negative self-talk, often using mindfulness techniques.
Clinical psychologyRecommended for those who need help with diagnosing and treating more complex mental health issues, often involving assessments and evidence-based treatments.
DBT: Dialectical Behavior Therapy Recommended for those who want to learn skills to manage intense emotions and improve their relationships, especially if they feel easily overwhelmed.
Integral Psychotherapy provides a space where you will be met with compassion and your deepest parts will learn to feel safe and connected to yourself and to the world. I curate our sessions drawing from my background in Neuroscience, Psychoanalysis, CBT and Behavior Analysis, amongst others, which combined provide an ample array of tools.
I have an open, non-judgmental approach and I aim to create a warm space to help my clients heal. My background in Eastern philosophy has taught me to view the world from a place of connectedness which I see as fundamental to a meaningful life.

You don’t need to have everything figured out before starting therapy. You don’t even need to know exactly what the problem is or what you need help with — that’s something we will explore and understand together.
