Therapy tailored to you and your goals
My Approach
I’m educated in a wide variety of therapeutic approaches and the research that supports them.
We’ll work together to find the best one for our work by combining your perspective on yourself, your concerns, and your goals with my experience and education.
Below, you can read about the frameworks I use most often and their views on what creates healthy change, but know that we can draw on other approaches based on your needs.
Individual Therapy Approaches
Parts Therapy
Parts therapy says that each of us is made up of a variety of individual parts, each with its own needs, fears, and roles to play. By caring for all of them, we can heal their wounds, bring them into balance, and create change.
If you’ve seen the movie Inside Out, then you already have an early understanding of this framework’s viewpoint.
Mindfulness Therapy
Mindfulness therapy asks us to acknowledge whatever is coming up for us without judgment. We’ll increase your self-acceptance and inner strength by working to welcome all of your experiences.
Doing this helps you notice how you react to challenging situations and make different choices to create the outcomes your want.
Cognitive-Behavioural Therapy (CBT)
CBT is one of the most well-researched therapy approaches available, and data has repeatedly shown it’s strongly linked with improvement in anxiety-related and other concerns. CBT digs into the relationships between our thoughts, feelings, and actions, giving us the chance to create change wherever it feels most available.
Client-Centred Therapy
Client-centred therapy – or person-centred therapy – puts empathy and compassion at the heart of the work. By reflecting the pieces of your story that are driving your concerns, you’ll be offered insights and perspectives on your strengths and your opportunities for change. This gives you the ultimate power to choose how you’d like to grow.

Relationship Therapy Approach
The Gottman method
Gottman therapy is based on decades of pioneering research on how strong relationships succeed and how struggling ones stumble.
One of the founders of this school of therapy, John Gottman, proved he could predict the success or the end of a relationship with 94% accuracy. We’ll use the techniques he and his wife-and-cofounder developed to keep you on the happy side of that statistic.
