“Whoever you are, no matter how lonely,
the world offers itself to your imagination,
calls to you like the wild geese, harsh and exciting—
over and over announcing your place in the family of things.”
– Mary Oliver

Who Am I
I believe that we each contain an inner home of love and knowing, but that our ability to fully meet ourselves in this way is often hidden behind our experiences of pain, survival, and suffering. My counselling practice works with the body and the imagination to discern the grown-over path through what can instead come to feel like an inner wilderness—the path home to understanding, loving, and trusting ourselves.
More About Me
The focus of my counselling practice, whether explicit or implicit, is caring for the soul. I believe that one of the main ways the soul can get our attention in our distracted lives is through complaint: melancholy, anxiety, yearning for belonging, lack of fulfilment, blind reactivity. The urgent cry of pain is often easier to hear than the still-small voice within. This is how the soul might land us in counselling, where we can find help to listen to and through the complaints, to translate their message.
My approach to counselling is body-led, intuitive, and imaginal: self-exploration via the below-conscious information that is often tucked just outside of our everyday view. Discerning how our emotions inhabit us physically is the jumping off point for deeper exploratory work. This is how we can begin to open up to the inner world of implicit knowing, to touch and love the mystery that lies at the heart of our being.
I am here because I believe that our soul, the very essence of us, is already telling us what we need—and that we often need help to listen to and through the complaints, to trust that still-small voice within, to translate the message.
