Under the framework of modern attachment theories, I work with clients to gain a greater sense of self-autonomy, determination and understanding. Many of our thoughts and feelings go unchecked during the busyness of a common day. In our work together, we will first learn to identify maladaptive core beliefs that so often plague our mental wellness. From there, I will implement EFT, narrative, and mindfulness approaches to combat self-defeating behaviours. How we think and feel about ourselves has a profound effect on our overall well-being, and both consciously and subconsciously influences every action (or in-action) we take.
