At some point in our lives we find ourselves feeling overwhelmed with a problem and unable to find a way out. Reaching out for support can provide an opportunity to learn alternative, healthier ways to cope and discover one's true self. My training in Marriage and Family Therapy and my diverse clinical experience, have allowed me to assist clients to discover and break their existing patterns that are keeping them stuck. Therefore, allowing them to develop insight, awareness, and a new outlook on the challenges they are facing, enabling them to lead more fulfilled lives and build stronger relationships.
The two main theoretical frameworks that I work within are: (1) Family Systems Therapy, where change is viewed in terms of the patterns of interaction between family members. (2) Cognitive Behaviour Therapy, where the therapist helps the client overcome their difficulties by changing their thinking, behavior, and emotional responses.
By providing a collaborative, supportive therapist-client relationship, I can guide you in strengthening coping strategies, attain problem-solving skills, build healthy relationships, break negative patterns, and develop self-worth.
