Mental Health Therapy

I offer bespoke and culturally sensitive mental health therapy sessions, available both online and in-person, crafted for individuals seeking support in navigating trauma, stress, and anxiety. My sessions are designed to facilitate connection with one's authentic identity, empowerment, and the pursuit of a harmonious work-life balance infused with purpose and fulfillment. I advocate for the transformative potential of outdoor adventures in fostering resilience, conquering fears, and nurturing self-trust.

Anxiety & stress

Guided by you, as the expert in your own life, our session could include exploring inner child and inner mentor work, yoga and mindfulness, cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), dialectical behavioral therapy (DBT), identifying coping skills, and/or going for a walk in nature to open the mind and connect to the physical body. I work mostly with adolescents and women who are looking to reduce suffering, build resilience, and step into their power. My role is not to ‘solve’ or ‘heal’, but to listen, understand, suggest tools and exercises, and ask clarifying questions to help you connect to the life you want for yourself. Together, we will find the tools and resources to help you get to know yourself better, cope with difficult emotions, and feel more empowered and resilient in order to tackle challenges that come your way.

Work-life wellbeing

I work with professionals, including humanitarians and expats, looking to find more balance between their professional and personal lives, and find a greater sense of purpose, joy, and meaning in both domains. Together, we will find the tools and strategies to help you connect to your purpose, prevent burnout, vicarious trauma, and/or compassion fatigue, set boundaries, challenge thoughts of ‘imposter syndrome’, and begin to ‘play big’ in your professional and personal life.
