Warmth, welcome and support are the touchstones of my being here for you.  We simply begin with a hello and welcome. The conversation will have a natural way of unfolding, and I will weave the way I work seamlessly into the session. Here is an introduction to the type of therapy I offer as an integrative psychotherapist.

​

Integrative psychotherapy involves choosing interventions and techniques that best serve your needs. I work pluralistically, meaning I enquire and receive feedback from you about what you find most helpful as we tailor therapies that will help soothe, care, and generate a sense of ease, mind, body, and spirit.

​

Person-centred, cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT), motivational interviewing, systemic, multi-cultural, creative, somatic, and mindful approaches will help us understand what is happening for you right now.

​

We can look to the past and explore with care, empathy, and compassion what in your life has caused you dis-ease, worry, anxiety, stress, pain or trauma. Together we can discover the coping patterns, thought processes, learning styles and behaviours that help, hinder, or no longer serve you, your relationships within your family, work, school, or community.

​

We will develop a relationship which allows you to say what you have kept in your heart for so long and open space for your heart to heal.

“We will trace the thread of life, find the knot and untangle it”

Martha Ostenso

​

We can look to the future create new intentions, develop new practices and motivations, finding out what brings you closer to your goals and dreams and what keeps you from achieving them

“Your visions will become clear only when you can look into your own heart. Who looks outside, dreams, who looks inside, awakes”

Carl Jung
