I use an Eclectic approach to therapy, which includes CBT, IPT, Existential psychotherapy and Psychodynamic elements. I help clients understand their emotions, recognize their thoughts and explore their behavioural motivations. Over time, people learn how to best achieve their goals, how to live fully in the present, and have meaning in their lives.
