Finding the right therapist is critical. I strive to create a safe place to explore your inner world of thoughts, beliefs, and emotions; a place where you are respected, heard and validated. As a client-centred therapist, I want to help you reach your goals. Together we can:
Develop self-compassion by making connections between past and present;
Create new meanings from your experiences;
Learn to use emotions as helpful guides without becoming stuck in them;
Change patterns that are causing suffering and holding you back;
Learn to better manage difficult emotions and an understanding of your body's natural stress responses;
Improve relationships through improved communication and a deeper understanding of attachment patterns.
PSYCHOTHERAPY DEFINED
The definition of psychotherapy is the assessment and treatment of cognitive, behavioural, or emotional problems within a therapeutic relationship. That's quite a mouthful! The truth is that most of us can benefit from some form of therapy at one point or another in our lives. People choose psychotherapy to get help for a wide range of issues including life dissatisfaction, emotional distress, relationship problems, stress, anxiety, depression, trauma, sleep problems, nightmares, shame, guilt, isolation, feeling stuck, disturbing thoughts or memories, being ineffective at work, unhealthy behaviours, a desire for personal growth, better self-awareness, and the list goes on. Whether you are really struggling or would just like to maximize your potential, psychotherapy may be just what you need.
