Psychotherapy is an incredible opportunity to focus on you! In therapy I work collaboratively with each client to create and improve the treatment plan that is right for them. Each person is unique and deserves a personal and unique experience in therapy. I work with respect, integrity, honesty and openness to ensure that you are heard and valued, and to offer a special time and place to work on the things that are important in your life. This is the deep value of Psychotherapy! To enter into a helping relationship, free from judgment, with the opportunity to overcome life's challenges and to thrive!

Psychotherapy is a treatment that creates a theraputic interation between the client and counsellor dealing with psychological issues in nature.

Psychotherapy is a supportive relationship that supports personal growth and behavioural change. There are a number of different approaches to therapy for any issue. I support clients to identify and achieve personal goals. Many of my clients come with problems related to anger, aggression, depression, anxiety or trauma. After I learn what my client has experienced, we decide what intervention options might work best for them. I use techniques such as hypnosis, EMDR, cognitive behavioural therapy, narrative therapy and mindfulness to support people in making the changes they desire.

Psychotherapy offers a safe place to address difficult issues and make changes in your life. If you are feeling stuck in your personal life or career talking with a therapist can help you to decipher what is holding you back. Working with a therapist is an opportunity to discuss painful issues and talk about things within a confidential setting.

My approach to psychotherapy is that change takes time. I work long term with most of my clients so that they may realize "real" change in their lives. Psychotherapy to me, is more than counseling. Counseling tends to focus on techniques and solutions; however, psychotherapy is a process of change. This process will the experienced with me in the room and also during the time between sessions. The commitment to the process of change is crucial for successful results.

My approach to psychotherapy is based in the relationship that I develop with my clients. This means that I attune to feelings, practice authenticity and hold healthy and clear boundaries so that we can discover together the depth of pain you have been carrying. Once we can talk about it the answers start to flow a little at a time but soon hope begins to build and you will find that problems seem more manageable. All feelings are welcome in psychotherapy and learning to use our feelings helps us have better intuition and thus navigate our lives and relationships with more efficacy.

My approach to working with clients is a collaborative, client-centered approach. I use an EMDR therapy model which is an integrative approach to psychotherapy. This model addresses our mental, emotional, and physical experience. It is more widely accepted and understood that our mental health is interconnected with our physical health. It is important that we take a holistic approach to healing in order to be able to truly move forward and feel renewed and empowered. Within a safe and supportive environment, I will support you in a healing process that fits with your life experience and worldview.

Psychotherapy is the treatment of mental health problems through a collaborative relationship between an individual and their psychologist. Through psychotherapy, an individual learns about their thoughts, behaviors, feelings, moods and overall condition by talking to a psychologist about them.
