My counselling approach is integrative, drawing from a range of psychological theories and practices to support your unique needs. By combining different frameworks, I help clients develop a deeper awareness of how their upbringing, family dynamics, and physiological states shape their inner world — particularly in relation to adversities, trauma, emotional regulation, and sexuality.
Sex Counselling:
We will explore your sexuality considering the biological, psychological, and social factors that shape it. Together, we will review medical factors that may be contributing to sexual difficulties, uncover how your autonomic nervous system responds to pressure and performance anxiety, and openly explore the role sexual scripts, personal experiences, religion, and culture have played in limiting you from fully embracing your sexual identity. Through this collaborative process, we’ll empower you to gain deeper insights, build resilience, and take actionable steps towards embracing your authentic sexuality.
Couples Counselling:
My work with couples is rooted in attachment theory, differentiation, and parts work—all of which help us understand the deeper emotional layers and internal dynamics that influence how we show up in our relationships.
We begin by identifying and transforming the negative interaction cycles that often leave couples feeling stuck or disconnected. Through this process, we explore each partner’s emotional experience and unmet attachment needs—what drives the patterns beneath the conflict. Attachment theory offers a framework for understanding how early relational experiences shape how we seek closeness, manage distance, and respond to vulnerability in adult relationships.
