Psychotherapy helps clients understand their thoughts and associated feelings. Understanding and identifying issues in our thought processes can reveal what is making us feel anxious, depressed, or a variety of other unwanted feelings. Talking helps clients cope with stressful situations in a safe and manageable way. Anyone who is overwhelmed by their problems and unable to cope can benefit from psychotherapy. Counsellors will help clients learn to identify distressing emotions, express feelings appropriately, and modify their approach to those around them. Overall, the improved levels of confidence provides the means to navigate life challenges in a healthier way.

Patterns of self-sabotaging behavioural, disorganized thinking and overwhelming emotion make life very difficult. How can we move forward when our bodies seem to betray us and we just need a break from the buzzing anxiety or the numbing of depression? What you may not know is all these symptoms are the imprint of our unfinished business, stuck in the body and just begging to be seen, cared for and accepted. Working with me means looking with curiosity, compassion and an educated-eye at how old wounds of betrayal, abandonment and rejection show up to block living your best life. You are not alone and there is hope.

Corrective emotional experiences allows clients to experience themselves differently in the present than they did in the past. Implementing a variety of therapies including CBT, DBT, EMDR, SE, EFT, MET or EPT best suited to the client and their situation brings about change. Freedom to engage in life as it presents in the here and now instead of in reaction to unconscious thoughts, feelings and physcial sensations that keep you stuck in the past brings about lasting change.

My approach to therapy is inspired by the teachings of Carl Rogers, who believed that the most effective way to help individuals was through a warm, empathetic, and understanding relationship. I create a safe space for my clients to be open, honest, and vulnerable, allowing them to work through their challenges and find their own answers within themselves.  I use a holistic and integrative approach, drawing from a range of therapies, including eye movement desensitization and reprocessing (EMDR), ego states theory, somatic approaches, cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), mindfulness, resonance and more.

There are many approaches to psychotherapy; each has strengths and weaknesses. I believe in individualizing my approach to suit clients' needs and issues. Theories that influence how I view clients and problems include humanistic, psychodynamic, relational, eco-systems, attachment and narrative. Some of the approaches I draw from include somatic experiencing, cognitive behavioural therapy, and response-based practice. Underlying it all is a holistic, client-centred, and strengths-based value system. My goal is to collaborate with clients to develop the internal and external resources they need to face, overcome and learn from their challenges so they can find happiness and fulfilment.

I offer a multidisciplinary and relational approach to psychotherapy that includes early attachment work and a sensitivity to intergenerational dynamics and trauma, with a holistic orientation and evidence-based techniques. The role of the body in healing is central to my work, as I draw on many somatic practices. I also work with the arts as a healing modality. On the part of my clients, no experience in the arts is necessary. Whichever therapeutic modality we choose as best suited to your current journey, we work with the fundamental creative drive that is present in all of us to encounter the many facets of your healing pilgrimage necessary for growth and lasting change.

Through different psychotherapeutic techniques, I will guide you on your path of self-discovery and personal growth. We can analyze the conflicts and obstacles in your life. Find and work with your personal collection of fears and start freeing yourself from them. I have extensive experience in different techniques, including CBT and other psychodynamic methods that have proven to be very effective in my practice.

Clients who receive psychotherapy from me will learn about the root of their issues and how to heal these wounds. Many issues we face in life are deep rooted in our childhood or resulting from traumas we have survived and need to be addressed to be truly free and achieve peace and serenity. I will help you learn to live a vital, rich meaningful life and overcome any mental health issues.
