My Approach to Therapy

My work is rooted in a person-centred approach, which means I see you as the expert of your own life and create a safe, non-judgmental space where you can explore openly. I often draw on Gestalt therapy to build awareness of how your thoughts, emotions, and body experiences connect in the present moment, and Emotion-Focused Therapy (EFT) to help process emotions in a supportive and healing way. Mindfulness practices are also part of my work, offering practical tools to slow down, ground yourself, and build resilience. I bring a trauma-informed lens to every session, paying attention to safety, pacing, and your comfort. My approach is integrative, meaning I adapt methods to fit your unique needs rather than expecting you to fit a single model. Above all, I take a strengths-based perspective—helping you recognize and build on the resilience and resources you already carry. - Let the CBT, Mindfulness practices, EFT, Trauma informed care tabs be here in this section
