You have taken the first courageous step towards your goal by reaching out for counselling. My role is to work along side you to help you achieve self-compassion, self-understanding and renewed calm. I have witnessed my clients’ progress, particularly, their understanding of difficult life situations, with a new sense of direction and confidence. Clients come to me for an exploration of their important family and other interpersonal relationships, for trauma, loss or abuse counselling or to achieve specific shorter term goals. I work with individuals in person or virtually, and couples or families in person.
My area of specialization is Attachment (I am a certified coder of the Adult Attachment Interview) and family systems exploration. For clients who wish to explore the impact of trauma, loss or abuse, I might use EMDR or Somatic interventions. I might employ briefer interventions such as Motivational Interviewing or Coaching to help you meet specific goals.
I believe my clients might say that I am very empathic, listen carefully and I am non-judgmental, but also not afraid to challenge them. I think they would also say that I asked the questions that enabled them to find the answers within themselves, and that I was caring and supportive throughout their process.
