About me

Finding the right therapist for you is not easy particularly when there is so many to choose from and so many different styles and approaches.
I understand you're just trying to find someone who will understand your experience of being in the world.
My therapeutic style is based around respect and empathy. My aim to understand you and help you alleviate your pain and become more aware of your feelings and patterns of relating to yourself and to others.
Drawing from psychodynamic and existential theories, I use an integrative approach to understand your life experiences and how they have led to you feeling stuck, depressed, unhappy, lost, or confused or whatever the reasons might be and ultimately seeking therapy.
Your problems and challenges are important to me. I believe each person already has in them the natural desire to grow, and that is what therapy with me is first about bringing about awareness that leads to personal growth.

Psychotherapy is commitment.
Psychotherapy is a brave commitment, there is no doubt about that and change can be difficult but not impossible. Therapy challenges you to sit with uncomfortable emotions, to explore the complexity of where you're at. To go through such a journey is courageous and you'll need someone who can go through the journey with you. I believe and feel the best therapy is one where you get to surprise yourself by what is possible.
