We live in a complicated world where we seem to be constantly bombarded with messages of wellness that often conflict with the way we are able to navigate the world. We are constantly being told what is good for us in a very universal way without first exploring who we are, what we have experienced and what we need to thrive.
There are things in life that happen frequently to us, repetitive patterns that appear in our relationships, the way we behave, the way we think of others and, I think most importantly, the way we think about ourselves. Understanding these patterns will allow us to find meaning in where find yourself now.
In order to make sense of this I offer an integrative approach to counselling, meaning that I utilise humanistic and psychodynamic frameworks that allow us to explore your personal history and patterns of relating in a deeper more meaningful way. My role is to help you find the keys to the knowledge and experiences you have kept locked away.
I believe that for a counsellor to be truly empathetic we must advance our awareness and understanding of difference. An intersectional lens is necessary to recognise how power impacts different groups in different ways and to identify the power we hold as individuals along with oppression we face. This knowledge enables us to see you wholly.
