I believe that couples who succeed in intimate relationships know how to handle difficult moments in ways that cultivate respectfulness and receptiveness in their partners. My style is gently reflective, providing clients an in-depth understanding of their emotional processes and attachment needs. I encourage clients to work collaboratively towards a deep and lasting connection by helping couples develop the complete set of habits characteristic of people who know how to get their partners to treat them well.
My approach with couples is informed by Emotionally Focused, Pragmatic Experiential and, Psychodynamic models. My approach with individuals is best described as integrative, drawing on my experience practicing different therapy models, including Emotionally Focused Therapy, Family Systems Therapy, and Dialectical Behaviour Therapy.
I tailor my therapeutic approach to the needs of each client, incorporating elements of these different models as appropriate. In addition, I have experience working with issues of substance abuse in outpatient therapy and treatment settings. I practice in English, French and Turkish.
