About Chloe

I love working with folks who don’t fit into normative spaces such as LGBTQ2S+, sex workers, folks from the poly/kink community and those with labels such as BPD. My aim as a therapist is to create a safe and non-judgemental environment in which you feel comfortable talking about any thoughts, feelings, or experiences regardless of how embarrassing or shameful you believe them to be, and be met with acceptance, warmth, and respect.

I also place a strong emphasis on moving at a pace which feels comfortable for you. I do not take a cookie cutter approach with clients and instead aim to create a new therapy with each person, based on their unique personality and needs. While I am trained in various techniques and approaches which are evidence based and known to be effective in improving mental health, I find it most beneficial for you when I integrate, adapt and tailor these approaches to fit with your unique personality and lived experiences-as opposed to asking you to adapt to to a predetermined approach. In my experience, people benefit more from an individualized approach, as it helps them feel more comfortable in therapy, and, in turn builds a stronger therapeutic relationship, which is the most important element of therapy.

I not only aim to help people cope with distress and difficulties they are experiencing, but also strive to help them develop an awareness and understanding of emotions, thoughts, and the meaning underlying their struggles. In addition, I find it important to emphasis the strengths and resilience of my clients while being in a relaxed and informal environment-making it easier to express your thoughts and feelings.
