SERVICES

What I do:

 I offer evidence‑based, relational, and insight‑oriented psychological therapy for adults seeking support with emotional, relational, and identity‑related concerns. My work is grounded in psychodynamic and humanistic approaches, with a focus on understanding patterns, experiences, and the deeper meanings behind them .

Anxiety and Depression Symptoms

 I support clients in exploring the emotional, relational, and historical factors that shape their experiences of anxiety and depression. Together, we work to understand underlying patterns, develop insight, and create new ways of responding that feel more grounded and aligned.

2SLGBTQIAS+ Affirmative Care

 I provide affirming, inclusive, and identity‑aware therapy for queer, trans, and gender‑diverse clients. My practice is informed by formal training and lived experience. I am kink‑aware, poly‑aware, and committed to anti‑oppressive, non‑pathologizing care. 

Relational, Sexuality, and Intimacy Concerns

 I help clients explore relational patterns, attachment dynamics, intimacy needs, and sexual wellbeing. This work often involves understanding how past experiences shape current relationships and developing a clearer sense of self in connection with others. 

Anger and Emotional Regulation

 I support clients in understanding the roots of anger, exploring its emotional and relational context, and developing more constructive ways of expressing and managing difficult feelings. 

Self-Esteem and Self Awareness

This work focuses on developing a more authentic, confident, and compassionate relationship with yourself. We explore identity, internal narratives, and the experiences that have shaped your sense of self. 

Life Transitions

 I offer support during significant life changes such as relationship shifts, career transitions, relocation, loss, or identity development. Therapy provides space to process, reflect, and navigate these transitions with clarity and support 

KHCPS Therapeutic Process

Availability

 All services are offered virtually to adults across the United Kingdom and Canada with specific considerations provincially within Canada  

Individual Virtual/Telephonic Therapy

 Our work together begins with a free consultation, where we discuss your concerns, clarify your needs, and determine whether we are a good therapeutic fit. If we decide to proceed, we schedule an introductory assessment session. During this session, we explore your history, current experiences, and the nature of the difficulties bringing you to therapy.

From there, we collaborate to develop a treatment plan that reflects your goals, your pace, and your unique circumstances. Beginning in the second session, we move into ongoing talk therapy. This process involves exploring your experiences, emotions, and relational patterns to deepen insight, expand perspective, and—when helpful—develop new ways of responding that feel more aligned with your authentic self.

Therapy is a collaborative, reflective space. My role is to support you in understanding the patterns that shape your life, making sense of your internal world, and creating meaningful, sustainable change.

Fees and Payments

Between 155-170 CAD or £83 to £92 GBP (assessment sessions are a higher rate due to administration). Regular sessions are 50 minutes and Assessment sessions are 60 minutes.  

I accept bank transfer or credit card payments after sessions.
