My ideal client is someone that is curious about themselves and others. They are willing to explore their behaviour and look at their protective layers. They are willing to risk and sometimes step out of their comfort zone. They would require respect and curiosity in therapy. The symptoms might be dysfunctional - anxiety, depression, relationship discord or adaptation issues, but they all serve a function.
I am a systems and strategic therapist. I study my clients' behaviour and experiences as part of their different systems. Different techniques are used, derived from different schools of therapy to tailor to my client's needs and process of healing. Recipes don't work and the client is seen as a team member rather than a patient .
