The Humanistic Approach

The humanistic approach means we will look at everything that makes you who you are – an individual with a unique history, set of experiences, thoughts, feelings and behaviours. We will look at how you connect with yourself, others and the world around you with a view to fully validating your experience. I will support you on your journey towards self awareness and fulfilling your potential.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

The Integrative Approach

Integrative means I draw on various approaches to meet your individual needs. These may include:

 

 

Psychodynamic

Here, the focus is looking at how your past experiences and conditioning influence your present thoughts, feeling and behaviours.

This exploration can lead to greater awareness and a deeper understanding of self.

Neuroscience

By having insight into how the brain and nervous system function, we can shed light on how you might experience life and more successfully incorporate change.

Somatic Work

Working somatically means tuning in to how we hold our experiences and history in the body.

 

 

Person-centred

The person-centred approach relies on the therapist providing the conditions of empathy and nonjudgement facilitating growth towards connecting with your true self.

 

Relational

I work relationally which means the trust and connection we build in our therapy space is key to your healing and growth.
