Integrative

I don’t have a set/rigid way of working but tailor my approach to what you need. Most importantly, I provide a safe space where we can think together. I will listen without judgment and together we will look at what isn’t working for you right now. Sometimes it can be hard to identify what exactly is holding us back, I see my role in helping you identify and address these issues/challenges and support you to face and overcome these.

Trauma-informed

Trauma can have a widespread impact on people's life experience. Trauma-informed therapy looks at the connection between trauma and our emotional, physical and behavioural responses. A safe environment is important when it comes to this. First we will establish a trusting and solid therapy relationship. I will work at your pace and together we will co-create ways to widen your window of tolerance so you can regain a sense of agency and empowerment. 

Inclusive

I welcome people of all backgrounds and identities and strive to provide an anti-oppressive practice.

I think it's important not to individualise our problems but take into account how we are shaped by our circumstances and the society we're a part of.

This includes recognising the inherent position of power and privilege I hold as a counsellor in the therapy relationship and in ensuring that we work together as equals. You are always the expert of your experiences.

​

Authentic

Therapy is your time and space where you can be fully yourself and expect the same from me. I don't believe in hiding behind a professional facade, I think connections are much deeper and better when you get to experience me as I am. I bring my humour and emotions into the room, because I am human, just like you. I always do this in a way that helps us connect and never in a way that makes it about me.
