My clients usually come to therapy for relief from their mental health symptoms. They are often feeling overwhelmed, have been thinking about making changes for a long time and are feeling stuck in how to move forward. Together we look at the issues, explore how it is impacting their lives, and come up goals and a treatment plan. This treatment plan includes learning more about your mental health, gaining new skills and strategies that you will carry with you long after therapy ends, and finally practicing a language of self-compassion to replace unhelpful/critical thinking.
I can help by offering you a safe space to talk about what is going on in your life. I practice Cognitive Behavioural Therapy that is compassion-focused. Clients learn how their thoughts, feelings, behaviour and physical selves are interconnected. They learn how to interrupt unhelpful thinking/behavioural patterns that perpetuate their problems.
Reaching out and asking for help is the hardest part. If you are reading this, you have probably pondered about seeking support for a long time. You are not alone and you do not have to suffer in isolation. Everyone is struggling with something at some time. We all deserve to be treated with compassion in our times of struggle. I am here for you.
