Over time I have trained in many models of psychotherapy, including humanistic and existential models, that offers bird's eye view of where you find yourself in the broader context of your life, to bring opportunities for acceptance, and a sense of ownership over the challenges that you face, in order to establish agency and a sense of freedom in your life. A psychodynamic approach brings insight to the influence of your familial relationships on your tendency for relating, both to your internal world, as well as, the repeating patterns in your relationships to others, that no longer serve you well. With a view to exploring new ways to enable your authenticity, boundaries and develop trust, connection and harmony in your relationships. Third-wave models of CBT (Cognitive-Behavioural Therapy) focus on how we attend to our thoughts and feeling, drawing upon mindfulness based skills, that can be grounded within a direction for taking action that is aligned with what is truly important to you. ​I am a qualified trauma-informed therapist, this means that I can help you identify where your survival mechanisms, that have served to protect you, can result in unprocessed emotions and exiled parts that perpetuate cycles of stuckness, shame, chronic stress, dissociation, shutdown and fatigue. By gently drawing on somatic awareness and embodiment skills you can learn to regulate and resource your nervous system and body, so that these experiences can be processed, gradually, to enable you to find your centre and capacity for the challenges life can bring whilst inhabiting more fully who you are.​ I am currently training as a systemic constellator which further helps deepen awareness into the influence of our family system, and to explore where you may be carrying the residue of intergenerational trauma, and to see where it is possible to release entanglements and energetic blocks. In alignment with this, I find great inspiration from depth-psychology and psycho-spiritual approaches including Shamanism and Mysticism that bring back the lost notion of soul, and it's significance to our reconnection to our sense of self, our intuitive inner guidance system and the world around, us to help navigate along our unique path with health and vitality. I am committed to developing my learning and practice, both personally and professionally and integrate the models above in an intuitive way to best address the issues that you bring. ​
