SOME INFORMATION

WHO I WORK WITH

You may be a good fit if you are a woman and

• You look like you're functioning, but you're struggling privately.

• You have experienced sexual or reproductive trauma.

• You are dealing with anxiety, shame or grief.

• You find yourself repeating patterns you don't understand.

• You want trauma-informed therapy rather than simply someone to talk to.

• You're ready to actively participate in the therapeutic process.

• If you’re seeking to engage in self-development, mental health growth, or gaining insight and not simply venting.

​

• I do not use social media, Whatsapp, etc., to connect with clients or to market my services. Email and voicemail are the best options for contact.

​

• My practice is not equipped to meet the needs of individuals who need after-hours care and crisis services. I do not receive phone calls or messages on weekends, evenings, holidays, or during scheduled time off. If you are having an emergency, please contact your primary care physician or dial 811.

​

• My services incur a fee per session.

If you need affordable services, please contact the National Family Services Division of the Ministry of Social Development and Family Services: https://www.social.gov.tt/national-family-services-division/
 

Do note, that I do not offer the following:

• counselling for men (please do not request an exception)

• any substance abuse counselling (you may try the Caura Hospital)

• addictions therapy (you may seek help here: https://findcarett.com/addiction/)

• conversion therapy (this is an unethical practice)

• relationship counselling/couples/marriage therapy (I am not trained for this population)

• counselling for children and adolescents/teenagers (I am not trained for this population)

• services to individuals mandated by the courts (the court officers may be able to refer you)

• services to individuals with personality disorders (e.g., borderline, narcissistic, anti-social, histrionic, etc.); bi-polar disorder and schizophrenia (a clinical psychologist and/or psychiatrist may be able to support you)

​

For these needs my services are simply not the right fit. Thankfully, there are many other psychologists and counsellors who can address these areas.
