My Approach
My approach to therapy is relational, experiential, somatic and emotion-focused. This means we will work with the felt sense of emotions in your body while also exploring your early relationships and attachment style in order to get to know why you are the way you are. Once you really come to know yourself in this way, you can learn to work with - and eventually transform - the ways of being that are no longer serving you, and step closer to living your most fulfilling life.
In each of our sessions we’ll integrate early attachment theory, nervous system regulation, trauma informed interventions, interpersonal practice, a whole-systems approach, and somatic experiences. Drawing on the knowledge that you already hold in your body, heart, and mind, we’ll create the change you desire.
Client safety, confidentiality, and professional ethics are essential to a counselling relationship. I strive to provide counselling experiences that are positive, beneficial, useful and safe. While painful and difficult emotions can emerge through counselling, I also respectfully incorporate lightness and humor into my work.
