Approach
The aim of my therapeutic approach is to provide a meaningful understanding of your difficulties and a deeper understanding of who you are as an individual. Theoretically I predominantly use a Psychodynamic perspective, which I integrate with Cognitive Behavioural Therapy and Interpersonal therapeutic techniques.

Services
Therapy is a process through which a person works one-on-one with a trained psychologist in a safe, caring, and confidential environment. The purpose of this is to be able to explore your feelings, beliefs, or behaviors, work through challenging or influential memories, identify aspects of your lives that they would like to change, better understand themselves and others, set personal goals, and work toward desired change.
People seek therapy for a wide variety of reasons, from coping with major life difficulties or childhood trauma, to dealing with depression or anxiety, to simply desiring personal growth and greater self-knowledge.
