What to expect...
Individual therapy requires a depth of vulnerability, accountability, and willingness to participate in the story of your life, no matter what season of life you are currently in. My approach is integrative and eclectic, pulling from various interpersonal, relational and psychodynamic psychotherapies. My practice draws from Emotion-Focused Therapy, Dialectical Behaviour Therapy, Internal Family Systems, Self-Compassion Focused Therapy, Somatic Psychotherapy, Trauma and Attachment Based Therapies.
In our time together, you will:
learn strategies to identify early warnings signs and adaptive strategies to cope
how to regulate your nervous system with a multi-dimension approach
create and notice awareness about what is happening in your body
understand the impacts of childhood wounding on adult relationships
understand attachment injuries and strategies for repair and letting go of pain
learn strategies to improve and stabilize mood
better understand the roots of maladaptive behavioural tendencies and how to create healthier life patterns
mobilize from a place of self-worth, self-love, self-trust towards goals, dreams and aspirations
learn how to be honest and accountable instead of living with the guilt of blame and shame
create meaning and purpose in life through engaging in breathwork and mindfulness practices
