Nosce Te Ipsum. Therapy begins with a dialogue about what indeed brought the client into the therapeutic setting. Clients’ thoughts, feelings and experiences provide much of the fodder for a therapeutic dialogue. Much of the work in therapy involves making sense of these thoughts and emotions. The therapist educes the client’s stories; clients narrate and share them. This integrative framework provide the lens in which I listen and connect to the narratives and presenting issues of my clients. As the tempo takes its momentum, a gradual progression of humanistic kinship, trust and understanding between my client and I are entrenched.

The process of art therapy involves self-discovery. It's not just about art, it's about exploring your emotions, experiences, and physical sensations and supporting your wellbeing. Nature and art aid in emotional regulation because they allows a person to put their emotions into physical expression that is outside of themselves. It is not about making the finished product but focusing on the creative process. It is during this time that self-expression can be explored. Art serves as a language, when words are difficulty to find. Fully accredited member of IACAT.

Sometimes we get overwhelmed by life and what life throws at us. Trying to make sense of what is happening can often feel like we are going around in circles. We may feel we are not coping and have little options available to us. I have worked with survivors of intimate partner abuse for many years. During my time working with survivors, I have encountered depression, anxiety, addiction and low self esteem. Relationships are our key to a healthier life, if your relationships with friends and family or work are causing you anxiety, expressing what is going on for you is the first step to freeing yourself from patterns you experience.

My practice is tailored to mothers navigating the transformative journey of parenthood.

Does psychoanalytic therapy work?
Psychoanalytic therapy derives from the work of Sigmund Freud. In this type of therapy, discovering buried thoughts and emotions from the unconscious will help a person work through their difficulties and negative behaviours. Research shows that psychoanalytic therapy can be highly effective, with patients reporting improvement in mood, quality of life, and overall well-being.
How long are people typically in psychoanalytic therapy?
Traditional psychoanalysis is in-depth and is conducted in five sessions every week. Today, modern psychoanalytic therapy is less intense and normally incorporates as few as one or two sessions a week. In some cases, positive change can occur quickly. However, if the condition, difficulty, or behaviour is deep-seated, improvement may require many months or years of therapy.
Is psychoanalytic therapy suitable for young people?
Children and adolescents can benefit from this type of therapy. Many kids and teens are often unable to form and communicate their thoughts and emotions. Psychoanalytic therapy uses specific techniques such as dream analysis, symbolism, and free association or word association; all of which can be useful tools for less-communicative young people. Through this therapy, a patient will hopefully make connections between what they feel inside and how the world works outside.
Can psychoanalytic therapy be done online?
Modern-day psychoanalytic therapy is very different from traditional psychoanalysis. While an individual can sit face-to-face with the psychoanalyst for multiple sessions a week, they do not have to. Today, psychoanalytic therapy can be effectively conducted online or by phone. The key is that the individual confronts what is repressed and avoided, and this can be done whether in person or over online video.
