mental health diagnoses

Receiving a mental health diagnosis can feel life changing. Some people feel a huge sense of relief and validation, that now they know what’s wrong. Others feel similar initially, though over time can feel frustrated, limited or defined by the label. And still others feel deeply uncomfortable with their diagnosis, that it reduces them to a disorder and misses so much of their rich, human story.

I have experience working with people who’ve received a range of diagnoses like: Anxiety, Depression, ADHD, Bipolar, Borderline Personality Disorder, Narcissistic Personality Disorder, OCD & Dissociative Identity Disorder. While it’s true that these labels can act as helpful guideline descriptions at times, my only focus is on you and your experience of them, and how we can work together to help life feel the way you want.
