What problem do you strive to overcome?
Sometimes clients feel overwhelmed by the process of starting therapy. They may feel as if they need to be ten steps ahead of where they currently are, and they can’t see a way forward. I utilise a holistic and individualistic approach throughout the therapeutic process to accommodate each client’s unique experience, needs, and goals for therapy. I strive to create a safe, welcoming, and comfortable environment for clients and value the importance of the therapeutic relationship to assist them in exploring their world, processing emotions and learn coping skills to deal with life stressors enabling them to move forward.
