Close your eyes for a moment and ask yourself. How am I really feeling today? I wonder what emotion comes forward. Now what would you do with this or these emotions? In my experience clients who experience emotional disturbance, often do not know what to do with difficult emotional experience, so it is either avoided or suppressed, later causing mental health issues such as depression, anxiety, stress etc. By focusing on our feelings, I believe we learn how emotions influence our choices/actions, and if we change the way we feel, we can change the way we think and behave.

I believe therapy works best when we feel safe to sit with challenging thoughts and emotions, to be curious about their roots, and to develop compassion for ourselves. Our work together will go at your pace, prioritising your security. I will ask gentle questions to encourage deeper inquiry, and reflect your experiences back to you for examination. I may also invite you to connect with your body during our sessions, to see if our discussion resonates with deeper memories. And I will check-in across sessions, to verify that our exploration aligns with your intentions for seeking therapy, ensuring that your needs are being met.
