What once helped you feel safe —staying quiet, overthinking, believing you are the problem —may now be keeping you stuck
What once helped you feel safe may now be keeping you stuck.
I support adults with trauma, anxiety and OCD who are recovering from the impact of emotional invalidation in relationships.
If you feel caught in patterns that are overwhelming, confusing, or hard to shift—especially when those patterns were formed or re-enforced in relationships where you didn’t feel safe, understood, or supported, together, we can make sense of what’s happening now—and what’s driving it underneath.
I support clients in processing trauma responses and anxiety loops in real time during session.
If this feels familiar, it’s often not because something is wrong with you, but because you may have adapted to environments where your thoughts, feelings, or needs were not consistently understood, supported, or safe to express.
Over time, coping strategies can develop—such as rumination, people-pleasing, staying quiet, scanning for what could go wrong, or needing certainty in order to feel safe. While these strategies are often protective, they can eventually contribute to anxiety, exhaustion, and disconnection.
Many clients come to therapy feeling stuck in cycles of anxiety, overthinking, and self-doubt, often alongside experiences of feeling rejected, blamed, or shamed in important relationships. This can shape how you see yourself, how you relate to others, and how safe you feel in your own mind.
Trauma responses may also show up as emotional overwhelm or shutting down when things feel too intense. Some people notice they go blank, disconnect, or feel far away from what they’re experiencing in the moment. Others feel on edge, easily triggered, or stuck in a sense of urgency or dread that doesn’t match what is happening now.
In relationships, this can show up as second-guessing yourself, managing how others see you, or feeling responsible for keeping things stable. Many people describe a sense of being “too much,” “not enough,” or like they are somehow the problem—even when they understand this logically isn’t true.
Over time, these patterns can become automatic and leave you feeling stuck, exhausted, or disconnected from yourself and others.
Narcissistic Abuse
When speaking up, trusting yourself, or taking up space led to blame or rejection, it makes sense that something in you learned to hold back. We work through manipulation, self-doubt, and emotional harm, and the lasting effects of narcissistic relationship patterns so you can rebuild a clearer sense of self.
Family Scapegoating
You may have been the one who noticed something wasn’t right—and somehow became the problem for it. You may have been blamed, shamed and rejected. This can lead to distance, boundary-based separation, or estrangement. In our work your story is taken seriously, and we begin to untangle what is true from what you were made to carry.
Adult Children of Emotionally Immature Parents
Growing up without consistent emotional support shapes how you related to yourself and others. We focus on rebuilding trust in yourself, understanding your patterns, and how to create relationships that feel safter, more stable, and more real.
Trauma
Relational trauma can shape a deep sense that something is wrong with you—that you’re not good enough, that it was your fault, and that it’s not safe to trust. I help you understand and work through these patterns so you can rebuild trust in yourself, feel safer in your relationships and respond differently.
Anxiety
Anxiety can feel like constant overthinking, second-guessing, or never quite feeling settled. Often, it develops in environments where you had to stay aware, anticipate problems, or question yourself to stay safe. I help you understand what’s driving these patterns so you can feel more grounded, trust your responses, and experience a greater sense of calm.
OCD
Some people have a more sensitive nervous system—meaning their brain detects threat and uncertainty more quickly—and these patterns can be shaped by self-doubt, responsibility, and the need for certainty. I use ERP therapy, the most evidence-based treatment for OCD to help you change your relationship with these patterns so they no longer run your life.
In our work together, we don’t only talk about patterns —we work with them as they show up in real time.
When appropriate, EMDR and Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP) are used in-session as structured tools to help reduce the intensity of trauma responses, intrusive thoughts, and long-standing behavioural patterns that have been difficult to shift through understanding alone.
Therapy with me is both compassionate and practical. I help you understand what is happening internally while also offering clear, evidence-based strategies to support change.
My role is to stay present with you through that process—supporting regulation, pacing, and safety as we work directly with what has felt stuck or overwhelming.
The work is collaborative, compassionate, and focused on helping you understand your patterns—so we can work with them, not against them.
Alongside my clinical training, I bring lived experience to my work, which supports a deeper sense of understanding, compassion, and attunement in the therapy process.
I also offer an optional Christian perspective for those who want that included in therapy.
My practice does not provide court-related or legal services, including court reports or counselling for custody or legal proceedings.
I am not able to provide crisis services or support individuals in immediate danger, active suicide risk, or situations where children are at immediate risk.
Counselling is for individual adults 18+. I do not offer couples or family therapy or counselling for minors.
