My Background and Approach
I believe that everyone needs someone who will give them a safe, non-judgmental place to work through problems or stresses. I see the role of a therapist as someone who dives into the deep end of your emotions/problems and helps guide you on how to swim your way out. I will be there if you start to drown to help keep your head above water, but I will also help you develop the skills to get out of the deep end and know how to navigate it should you end up there again. I strongly believe that no one lives in a bubble and that when we start to make changes, even when those changes are needed, all aspects of our life feel the impact. Through my work with clients, we look not just at how the problem impacts you as a person, but all aspects of life – work, school, community involvement, family, friendships and much more. We also look at and work out how changes could look and how to handle barriers that might development to sidetrack change.
