I’m so pleased you found me…
So, I’m one of those therapists who became a therapist in order to heal my own system! My story might be a little like yours - I never felt like I belonged anywhere, period. Always trying to prove my worth, to fit in, to be heard and seen. The numbness or the complete overeactions to the littlest of things. Relationships, particulary intimate ones were a minefield ( and some days they still are ). And in my case I added a hypersexualised system on top which ramped up even more upon discovering sex and mixing up sex for love.
And then, I sat down in front of someone who was in self ( as we like to say in IFS language). He had access to huge amounts of compassion which for my highly critical system was something it had never experienced before. His lack of judgement of me, his holding of me with such positive regard and curiosity was the beginning of the unraveling and the reconnecting that is still to this day taking place…
I’m the kind of therapist who hasn’t just learnt or studied something ( although I’ve done a ton of that too ) ….this is something I’ve lived too.
Outside of work you will find me with my dogs ( I breed dogs and puppies is THEE most exciting time of the year for me) on my lifestyle block, on my yoga mat, on the couch with a book, in the sauna, in the kitchen mastering the art of sourdough or on the dance floor!
I am passionate about…
…creating spaces for healing
…supporting people with challenges relating to their lives and sexuality
…educating and advocating respectful and healthy sexuality
I am deeply motivated to bring this work to the world for a variety of reasons. First and foremost are the two beautiful humans I have the privilege of calling my sons. My desire for them, and for in fact everyone, is that we live in a world where the innate wisdom of our bodies is given a voice.
I believe people should be given the tools to listen to their bodies, to feel their yes’s and no’s, to welcome their desires and to be able to communicate all of the above with the partner/s of their choice, in a respectful, open manner.
