Trauma Therapy
Anxiety and Depression
If anxiety or depression is interfering with your daily life and well-being, know that you don't have to face it alone. I can help you better understand the root causes of your anxiety or depression and equip you with practical tools and strategies to manage your symptoms. Let's work together to bring more balance, peace, and joy into your life.
Body Image, Body Neutrality, Fat Justice
Society bombards us with ideas around beauty and femininity. I'm passionate about supporting women in developing a healthier relationship with their bodies and bring back the joy to eating whatever looks tasty. We'll explore body image issues, embrace the concept of body neutrality, and challenge societal norms around beauty and healthy eating. I'm committed to promoting fat justice and work from a weight neutral approach.
Identify, Confidence, Self-Esteem
We construct our sense of self and identity through the people around us but that’s not always a complete or accurate picture. Developing a positive sense of self and building confidence is essential for a joyful and truthful life. I'm here to support you in exploring your identity, overcoming self-doubt, and boost your self-esteem. Together, we'll challenge negative thought patterns, cultivate self-compassion, and empower you to embrace your unique strengths and qualities.
Crisis of Meaning and Purpose
Life can sometimes feel overwhelming, leaving us questioning our purpose and the meaning behind our experiences.
Should I quit my job? What if I go back to uni? Kids or no kids? Is this the right relationship for me? Or even the question: Is this all there is to life?
I'm here to help you navigate through these questions, providing guidance and support as you explore your values, passions, and the direction you want to take. Together, we'll find clarity, meaning, and a renewed sense of purpose. So you know exactly what your next step is!
Motivation and Procrastination
If you find yourself struggling with motivation or frequently caught in a cycle of procrastination, I can assist you in uncovering the underlying factors contributing to this pattern. Through tailored techniques and strategies, we'll address self-limiting beliefs, time management, and create an environment that fosters healthy productivity. Additionally, I offer ADHD assessments providing a comprehensive picture to guide our approach and ensure the most effective support for you.
Motherhood & Post-Partum
Becoming a mother can bring immense joy but also significant challenges. Whether you're navigating the transition into motherhood, experiencing postpartum difficulties, or dealing with issues related to parenting, I'm here to provide a supportive and non-judgmental space. We'll explore your concerns, develop coping strategies, and make sure you actually get to enjoy being a mom and build a solid relationship with your kids. I have worked with many families with babies, toddlers and teenagers.
Miscarriage & Infertility
If this is why you’re here know that I am sending you lots of love. I had two miscarriages and can relate. Dealing with infertility or experiencing a miscarriage is heartbreaking and drains our energy so much. You’re not alone and I’d love to support you on your journey wherever it may lead. Together we process what is going on and figure out which path you want to follow.
