I believe that psychotherapy in essence is a collaborative process that aims to increase psychological well-being and reduce emotional pain, loneliness and languishing which are ever present in today's world. At the heart of this process, is the positive healing relationship that develops between an individual, a couple or a family, and the therapist. I offer clients a non-judgemental, empathic and queer affirmative space where they learn to identify and tolerate their emotions, articulate appropriately their needs to significant people in their life and work on breaking away from toxic negative cycles.
My approach is integrative and based in Attachment, Trauma-informed, Self-compassion, Emotionally focused, Systemic, CBT/Mindfulness therapies. I believe that my clients are resilient individuals. With my training in verbal, somatic and arts based therapies, I have several tools at my disposal to help you resolve your challenges verbally and non-verbally.
Seeking therapy is sometimes not easy. So if you are reading this, congrats on already starting the healing journey. Please remember, therapy can be approached as a preventative solution, or for short-term support initiated by tough life transitions/decision-making or as a longer term aid to deal with past experiences and/or relational traumas.
