Meet Nadine
“Therapy with me isn't performative or school— it's more like kicking off your shoes in a room that doesn’t expect anything from you.”
Grounded in experience, guided by care
​​With nearly two decades in mental health, Nadine brings a steady hand and a deep understanding of how healing unfolds—no rush, no pressure.
​
People person, through and through
Nadine has a gift for relationships, making people feel seen, heard, and safe. Therapy feels warming, like your favourite cardigan.
Doesn’t follow a script.
She tunes in to You! Shifting her pace, interventions and style unique to what ails you. Creating space that feels natural, not clinical.
Big-picture thinking, grounded in ethics
She brings compassion, respect, and zero judgment to every session. Therapy is about honouring your authentic self—not changing who you are.
