Areas of Expertise
As psychotherapy is a life-long commitment to professional development, I participate in ongoing certification. While I am integrative in my approach, the following highlights some of the methods I use. In the end, the choice is unique to the client/s and is based on their comfort and approval.
Psychodynamic thinking & Attachment theory
Our past affects our present, including our thoughts, feelings, and emotional triggers. How is your past affecting your current life, your feelings, thoughts, trust and reactions?
Cognitive behavioural therapy
We can modify our automatic thoughts and feelings to create healthier emotional reactions and behaviours. How can we help you be the best person you can be, for yourself and in interpersonal relationships?
Acceptance and commitment therapy | Compassion-focused therapy | Mindfulness
How can you be more gentle to yourself?
How can you enhance your self-esteem and self-care?
What skills will ease you in moments of distress and move you toward your goals?
Couple’s therapy (Gottman leader; EFT certified; Perel)
How can you improve the quality of your interactions and relationships?
What communication techniques can help resolve new or ingrained conflicts?
How do we heal toxic injuries and create a safe space?
What is your vision as a couple for the future?
I take inspiration from "Kintsugi," the beauty of imperfection.
Where broken pieces come together to form a new,
stronger, and more beautiful whole.
