“Former child performer, current psychotherapist; using humour and expertise to help others understand and cope with mental health”
I'm a Registered Psychotherapist with 5 years practical experience helping people heal from trauma and cope with mental health issues. I have specific training in Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, Dialectical Behavioural Therapy, Gottman couple's therapy, Sex therapy, Existential and humanistic therapies, and use an integrative approach to therapy and education. I specialize in supporting individuals and couples through experiences with interpersonal trauma (abuse/violence), gender, sexuality and healthy relationships.
Many moons ago, I was a child actor and had a complicated experience on set (as we all did). A major part of my healing journey was spent coping with and understanding these experiences and how they impacted me. In my young adult life I personally experienced sexual violence and addiction, something I am proud to say informs my work with clients today. I would love the opportunity to reach larger audiences, share my story and help others!
In my personal life am OBSESSED with reality television and true crime, and my dream podcast to guest on would be giving mental health expertise to help audiences think critically, understand and prevent personal harm from either watching or participating in these forms of media.
