I am dedicated to exploring and enhancing every person’s individuality and unique potential in a collaborative therapeutic relationship. I perceive and engage in individual treatment plans in a holistic manner whereby I adapt my approach to accommodate the needs of the individual who is seeking professional assistance. I am informed by existential, psychodynamic and cognitive-behavioural modes of therapies and I hold the belief that the correct choice of treatment modality for each individual is essential to ensure a good response to the intervention.
I have a particular interest in supporting individuals who are struggling to manage difficult or overwhelming emotions or events in their lives. However, I love working with people from all walks of life, and I seek to create an atmosphere where individuals feel comfortable to express themselves and discover possibilities.
