At this point in time, you may want to be supported in a safe environment where you can work through the difficult thoughts and feelings that you are experiencing. Issues that I work with include stress, anxiety, anger, depression, physical illness (including health issues/addiction), grief/loss, and relationships.
My approach is eclectic; evidence-based, person-centred and influenced by Buddhism and yoga philosophy. Depending on what arises in the course of our sessions, we might work together using somatic mindfulness methods, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, CBT or Narrative Therapy.
As we work together to untangle the mental and emotional knots, you arrive at a space of greater clarity and perspective.
