Mission Statement

Welcome

Seeking support is a courageous step, and I would be honoured to walk alongside you on this journey with compassion and care. My name is Rez, and I’m a licensed Psychotherapist and Counsellor with over seven years of experience helping individuals navigate challenges such as anxiety, depression, ADHD, substance use, self-esteem, and trauma.

I take a holistic approach to therapy, recognising the interconnectedness of mind, body, and spirit. I believe that true healing involves addressing all aspects of a person’s experience—emotional, psychological, physical, and relational. My practice is grounded in a trauma-informed, client-centred philosophy, and I draw on evidence-based methods such as CBT, DBT, ACT, and psychodynamic therapy. I also incorporate mindfulness, somatic awareness, and Jungian principles, exploring the unconscious, dreams, and symbolism to help uncover deeper insights and meaning.

Before starting my private practice, I gained extensive experience in counselling and psychotherapy across diverse roles. I’ve worked as a Drug and Alcohol Counsellor, supporting young people and families with substance use and mental health challenges, and as an Online Psychotherapist, tailoring therapies to individual needs. I’ve also worked with marginalised communities, providing mental health support to individuals facing complex challenges such as homelessness, addiction, and mental illness. These experiences have shaped my integrative, compassionate approach to therapy, which honours each person’s unique journey.

My online practice ensures accessibility and convenience, allowing you to engage in therapy from the comfort and privacy of your home. Together, we’ll create a safe, supportive space where you feel seen, heard, and empowered to grow at your own pace. Whether you’re seeking clarity, healing, or personal growth, I’m here to guide you with care and understanding.

My Philosophy

I believe therapy is a collaborative process rooted in trust, empathy, and respect for your individuality. My holistic approach integrates evidence-based techniques with a focus on the whole person, helping you reconnect with your authentic self and uncover your inner strengths.

Healing is not a one-size-fits-all process, and I tailor my work to meet your unique needs, values, and goals. Whether we’re addressing anxiety, depression, ADHD, substance use, or self-esteem, I aim to create a therapeutic space that honours your experiences and empowers you to heal and grow at a pace that feels right for you.

I also have specialised training in Psychedelic-Assisted Therapy, helping clients integrate transformative experiences into their healing journey. This is part of my commitment to offering innovative, evidence-based care that supports deep and lasting change.

Why Choose a Holistic Approach?

A holistic approach to therapy acknowledges that our mental health is deeply connected to our physical, emotional, and relational wellbeing. By addressing the whole person, rather than just symptoms, we can uncover the root causes of challenges and create meaningful, sustainable change.

This approach also honours the uniqueness of each individual. No two people are the same, and I believe therapy should reflect that. By integrating a range of evidence-based methods with mindfulness, somatic awareness, and an exploration of the unconscious, I aim to help you reconnect with your inner resources and live a more balanced, fulfilling life.
