THERAPEUTIC STYLE: HOW I SHOW UP FOR YOU IN THERAPY<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Thebest predictor for growth and healing in therapy is the fit between you and your therapist.<\/b><\/mark>I strive to meet you with warmth and compassion, respect, authenticity, and when appropriate, a dash of humour. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

First we work on building trust and rapport.<\/mark><\/strong>Together, we identify what to work on in therapy and we buildskills to cope.<\/mark><\/strong> Then when you are ready, and as long as you consent, we take the lid off pandora’s box andget to the “tough stuff”<\/mark>. <\/strong>Weharness and ground your courage to lean into this pain<\/mark><\/strong>to be able to move towarda more meaningful and fulfilling life.<\/mark><\/strong><\/p>\n<\/div>

\"\"<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n
\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I help you discovernew perspectives<\/mark> <\/strong>andnew skills<\/strong><\/mark>, often checking how what we are talking about might be “landing with you”.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I act as aguiding light in the darkness,<\/mark><\/strong> with the goal of passing you the lantern to carry on your journey ahead.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>
\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I use anintegrative<\/strong><\/mark>approach. This means I often pull from several approaches to meet your needs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The main theoretical approaches I use and have training in are listed below. I am happy to unpack what these acronyms mean in the initial consult or in sessions:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
