I have availability.

As a qualified integrative counsellor, I collaborate with clients to explore their intersectional identities and experiences from a decolonial perspective. With the understanding that oppressive, colonial, and capitalist systems continue to exploit and enslave us, my approach to therapy draws from Indigenous knowledge and practice-based evidence. I hope that through our work, we can decolonise our minds and bodies, reclaim our Indigenous identities, and resist oppressive colonial forces.

Within a decolonial space, we can work together to hold and process these emotions, unmask and challenge colonial schemas, reconnect to somatic experiences, and address global and generational suffering. Drawing from Indigenous practices, we can find decolonial tools and systems of wellbeing that empower and liberate you from oppressive, colonial structures.

Reclamation is resistance is revolution. Our reclamation is an important part of the struggle for collective liberation. Your progress is power, and together, we can get one step closer to defeating colonial forces. If you want to know more or work with me, please email me to book a 15-minute free consultation. Thank you.

Intersectional work can focus on race, ethnicity, nationality, culture, religion, sexuality, and oppression. Through counselling, we will explore these identities and lived experiences, challenge colonial thought patterns, recognise and process emotions somatically, and rely on Indigenous practices to empower, liberate, and decolonise in pursuit of reclamation.

Rooted in person-centred therapy, I pull from creative, narrative, cognitive-behavioural, relational, and somatic techniques to explore identities and experiences. I rely on multicultural Indigenous knowledge of well-being practices to empower you to take action towards your reclamation. Agency, autonomy, and feedback are core to my practice. You decide and dictate the trajectory of our work.
