My Approach

 

How I Work

Therapy with me is collaborative, structured and adapted to what you need.
 

We look at what you’re experiencing now while also understanding the patterns that shape how you feel, think and relate.

 

Therapeutic Approaches I Use

I draw from different evidence-based models depending on your goals:

 

CBT

Tools to manage thoughts, emotions, behaviours and anxiety cycles.

 

Interpersonal Psychotherapy (IPT)

Focus on relationships, communication, role changes and unresolved feelings.

 

Psychodynamic / Relational Therapy

Exploring deeper emotional themes, long-standing patterns and relational dynamics.

 

ACT & CFT (when appropriate)

Supporting emotional flexibility, self-compassion and values-based choices.

 

 

 

Tailoring the Work to You

We begin by understanding what brings you here and what feels most difficult right now.

 

Together, we clarify your goals and identify the therapeutic approach that best fits your needs.We review progress regularly and adjust the work as things evolve.
