Psycotherapy
Gigi is passionate about supporting adolescents and adults of all neurotypes using a holistic and strength-based approach. Gigi's clients usually see her for a range of concerns including: anxiety, depression, perfectionism, stress management, emotional regulation and coping skills, attachment, grief and loss, trauma, and adjusting to changes / life transitions.
Gigi is also deeply committed to working with clients from culturally diverse backgrounds who may be navigating cultural identity and intergenerational trauma. She supports clients in exploring the intersections of culture, values, and identity, and in developing a more integrated and compassionate understanding of themselves across different cultural contexts.
Gigi adopts a flexible and individualized approach to therapy, tailoring her methods to meet each client’s unique needs. While she draws from evidence-based therapies like Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) and Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), her work has increasingly shifted toward approaches such as Schema Therapy and EMDR, with a focus on identifying unmet emotional needs and supporting long-term emotional healing and personal growth.
Embracing Neurodiversity
Authenticity is about tuning in to your true needs and wants, and making life choices that are aligned with those.
Gigi's clinical interest is supporting and empowering neurodivergent clients, especially girls, women, and gender-diverse individuals. Gigi endeavours to provide neurodiversity-affirming and trauma-informed therapy to her clients by valuing their lived experiences and honouring their communication styles. Gigi empowers her clients to make values-aligned choices and works with them collaboratively as each neurodivergent individual faces their own unique situations and challenges. Gigi believes with adequate support and accommodations, neurodivergent people can identify their unique strengths, embrace their authentic selves, and live a fulfilling life.
