My approach is open and collaborative. Being an integrative therapist means I draw from a range of therapeutic techniques from humanistic, psychoanalytic, and existential traditions. I use system centred and attachment theories intertwined with the neuroscience of emotional regulation and trauma. Relational dimensions of my work with clients means there is a profound focus on building a strong therapeutic relationship of trust and understanding with a view to uncovering the interventions most helpful for you. From my background as a therapeutic yoga teacher, I integrate mindfulness, somatic or body-centred processing where appropriate.

I work mostly in the present moment, encouraging clients to attune to their feelings about themselves, relationships and life circumstances. This is facilitated by establishment of an open therapeutic space. Thereby fostering the capacity to go deeper into client's experiences. This can not only help to process and repair painful, difficult realities but also help to uncover more fulfilling ways of living, alleviate aloneness in facing client's problems. In going deeper, I might explore dreams. This is one example of how I may work with the unconscious that seeks to address repressed aspects of your emotional and physical worlds, and how these interact. Exploring the relationship between client's struggles today and those in their past, can help clients develop awareness and insight, illuminating ways, with support, that clients can finally begin to overcome unhelpful patterns generated across their lifetime. 

If you choose to work with me, it is important to know that my goal would be to welcome all of you to the therapy. This means addressing parts that you may not feeling socially acceptable or that you may not have shared before. This is where the building of a safe space, through a trusting relationship dedicated to your wholeness comes into its own. Grounding my approach that works holistically and collaboratively to create your own bespoke therapy, that promotes your mental health and your growth.
