About Me
As a pre-accredited psychotherapist trained in a Humanistic and Integrative way, I use a person-centered approach with a focus on what is happening in your life right now. Giving you the time and space to explore your feelings and how they affect and impact your daily life. Every person just wants to feel ok and deserves the best life for themselves, I believe that deep down we all know the way to this place. We get lost along, things happen, some things we have control over, others we don't. In therapy we get the opportunity to slow down and reflect.
Experience
Interpersonal psychotherapy for 2 years
My journey into psychotherapy started six years ago and I have two years experience seeing clients . During the last 15 years I have worked with youths age 18-26 years experiencing addiction, homelessness and time with the criminal justice system. With the majority of the young people I have worked with, there is some underlying trauma, and the drink and drugs are used to numb the pain. It take courage to go to therapy, it take courage to face the pain.
Approach
I trained as a Humanistic and Integrative Psychotherapist. This is a person-centered approach, believing the client knows themselves best and using the relationship between client and therapist to explore together what is happening in the clients life right now and how it is affecting their quantity of life, their relationships and their overall well-being. Psychotherapy can offer a deeper self-awareness which can lead to healing and building our own resilience and overall better quality of life. I provide a space with a sense of safety and acceptance with compassionate listening which gives you the freedom to explore yourself, wherever that takes you.
