Psychoanalytically informed
We take the time to understand not only what you are experiencing, but also what may be happening beneath the surface.
Therapy approach
Psychoanalytically informed and insight-oriented
Psychotherapy does not require us to get rid of difficult emotions. Sadness, anger, anxiety, grief, shame and uncertainty are part of being human.
“Tough emotions are part of our contract with life.”
Dr Susan David
My approach
Understanding what lies beneath the surface
Sometimes difficult emotions become hard to understand, or begin to interfere with the ways we live, work and relate to others.
My approach is psychoanalytically informed and insight-oriented. This means we take the time to understand not only what you are experiencing but also what may be happening beneath the surface.
Over time, developing a deeper understanding of yourself can create room for greater freedom in how you respond to yourself, others, and the circumstances of your life.
Insight-oriented
We might explore recurring patterns in your relationships, the ways you respond to difficult situations, experiences from earlier in your life, and feelings that may be difficult to put into words.
The therapeutic relationship
The therapeutic relationship itself can also become a place where these patterns emerge and can be understood.
