People engage in psychotherapy for a multitude of reasons. Some are struggling with change, some struggling with a lack of change. Some want help with a crisis or specific problem, while others seek help to change behaviours and pattens that are no longer serving them. My therapeutic style is compassionate, empowering, holistic and can be a bit of fun too. Psychotherapy invites greater self awareness and the exploration of new skills to deepen your relationship with yourself and others. Enabling growth and providing flexibility in the face of challenges and inner space for peace and contentment.
