My Approach to Counselling
I offer integrative counselling, which means I draw from a range of evidence‑based therapeutic approaches and shape each session around what you need most. Rather than fitting you into a model, I tailor the therapy to your goals, your pace, and your lived experience.
A Holistic, Flexible Approach
My work blends several therapy modalities, including:
- Cognitive Behaviour Therapy (CBT) — understanding patterns in thoughts, feelings, and behaviours
- Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) — building psychological flexibility and reconnecting with what matters
- Solution‑Focused Therapy — identifying strengths, resources, and practical next steps
- Narrative Therapy — exploring the stories that shape your identity and creating new possibilities
- Other integrative modalities — chosen based on what best supports your wellbeing
Therapy Shaped Around You
Every person arrives with different experiences, capacities, and hopes. Your sessions are tailored to:
- what feels safe for your nervous system
- the pace that feels manageable
- the goals that matter most to you
- the type of support you find most helpful
Some sessions may be reflective and exploratory; others may be practical and skills‑based. We work collaboratively to find what supports you best.
A Whole‑Person Focus
This integrative approach allows us to work with the whole of you — your emotions, your body, your values, your strengths, and your story — so you can feel more grounded, connected, and supported as you move forward.
