Helping you find your way.
It can feel very uncertain in your early adulthood as you navigate endings and new beginnings, and as you figure out who you are and what you want to do - often with a great sense of pressure to figure it out quickly and perfectly.
I'm Rebecca, a therapist and counsellor working with individuals during difficult periods in their life, when they may be feeling lost or overwhelmed. I support clients in their 20s and 30s seeking help with life direction and transitions, uncertainty, self-esteem, self-confidence, and depression and anxiety, among other issues.
We work together as you figure out who you are and what’s important to you, where you want to go and what you want to do, and how to improve your relationship with yourself and with other people in your life.

Women's Issues
I work with women using feminist-informed approaches on: perfectionism, self-criticism, self-esteem / relationship with self & others, sexuality, body image, work & career, and relationships.
Therapy is a supportive place to explore identity and meaning outside of achievements, and to challenge the roles that women may find themselves playing in life.

Feminist and Spiritual Philosophy
Feminist and spiritual philosophies have a lot to offer when it comes to understanding and connecting with ourselves, our experiences and emotions, with others, and with the world around us. I draw on principles such as Power-With (as opposed to Power-Over), balance, fluidity, embracing change, and how we can meaningfully come to terms with suffering and uncertainty.

Men's Mental Health
Therapy is a safe environment where men can work through their experiences of work-stress and pressure, relationship to masculinity, life direction, depression / low mood, anxiety, relationship issues, self-esteem, self-criticism, body image, loneliness, and loss.
We collaborate on your chosen goals, working within an environment of non-judgement, understanding, and authenticity.
If you would like to learn more, or to see if we are a good fit to work together in therapy, feel free to get in touch to arrange a free 30-min consultation call.
You can also learn more about how therapy works, on my blog.
