I focus on building a strong therapeutic relationship. This is one of the most important common factors to successful outcomes. While maintaining this solid connection, I draw from a variety of evidence-based modalities to blend an approach that adapts to a client’s needs, readiness, and preferences.
A therapeutic relationship with the
right information, technique & strategy.
You’ve tried to feel better and to figure stuff out, but it’s hard work to do alone!
I use ‘Top Down’ and ‘Bottom Up’ approaches…meaning I work to strengthen the upper brain (our thinking part) and lower brain (our emotional part) to help my clients gain access to their best self.
Integrating…
the needs of the body and brain
the interconnectedness of thoughts, beliefs, emotions, & behaviours
aspects of our socialization
the importance of belonging & connection
our past experiences
People start to heal the moment they feel heard.
