an integrative humanistic approach

My practice is an integration of Humanistic modalities, including Person-Centred Therapy, Gestalt, Relational Psychoanalysis, Jungian analysis and Internal Family Systems.

Humanistic psychotherapy prizes your innate capacity to heal and self-actualize. So we work to understand the internal and external forces that might constrain this natural tendency towards growth, as well as the resources that support and strengthen it.

I work with body awareness and mindfulness principles to support clients in moving at their own pace with a sense of safety, presence and self-compassion. I encourage the use of art, dream work and visual journaling to explore different ways of knowing and experiencing the Self.

Research shows that the key to good outcomes in therapy is not a matter of modality or technique. Rather, it's held in the relationship of equality, mutuality and trust between client and therapist. I keep this principle central to my practice.
