It’s Time to Come Back home to Yourself

I tend to work with folks who aren’t feeling satisfied or want to increase their quality of life. Maybe you’ve “checked all the boxes” and still aren’t feeling that you’re living the life you imagined for yourself. This may show up as perfectionism, lack of motivation, hyper-independence, people pleasing tendencies, struggling with boundaries, imposter syndrome etc.

My specialties are ADHD, anxiety, complex trauma, and attachment and relational patterns. I work with teens and adults.

My therapy approach is relational, casual and collaborative. Feeling comfortable and connected is when therapy is most effective.

We start by getting to know each other and what's going on for you. We identify goals and what's important to you, as well as what is already working/not working. Then we try different approaches and interventions; it's all about finding the right fit for you.

I consider myself an eclectic therapist, meaning I draw from various modalities. I believe in holistic approaches to healing, so I make sure to incorporate modalities that focus on thought processes, as well as modalities that focus on what’s stored in your body.

I draw from emotion-focused therapy (EFT) and attachment theories, internal family systems (IFS) and parts work, dialectical behaviour therapy (DBT) and cognitive-behavioural therapy (CBT) for coping skills and solution-focused approaches, as well as mindfulness and somatic approaches.

Autonomy and dignity, care and curiousity, and focusing on strengths and growth are pillars for Back Home Therapy.

I always strive to be trauma-informed and work from an anti-oppressive lens. I acknowledge my own privileges and deeply value inclusivity and being a lifelong learner.
