What motivates people to come to therapy
In my practice, I meet with people who bring along their challenges and dilemmas, their struggles and emotional pain, trauma, depression or anxiety they would like relief from, relationship issues, or loss in its many forms.
Often people seek counselling and psychotherapy as they have reached a turning point and come with a feeling that their life is not quite right, like something is just missing. They want to understand reasons why they feel unfulfilled, stuck or detached from themselves or others. They are brought by their desire to live a life that is true for them, with a sense of freedom and harmony within themselves.
My experience shows that at the heart of peoples’ motivation to embark on this journey is their drive for healthy and fulfilling relationships; be that relationship with themselves or relationships with others.
I work with people from a diverse range of cultural backgrounds, bringing my own lived experience and cultural sensitivity as a migrant and as someone immersed in diverse personal and professional settings.
I welcome people of all ages (over 18yrs), ethnicities, gender identifications, sexual orientation, faiths, spiritual paths and religions.
My practice is LGBTQIA+ affirming. I honour your gender, sexual and relationship identity.
My Approach
My approach is rooted in humanistic philosophy. This means that I acknowledge that every person is a unique being with particular talents, limitations, emotions, knowledge, and life stories.
I hold that relationships are at the heart of being human and that we can make meaning of our experiences through looking at how we relate to ourselves and others around us. Thus, exploring together what unfolds in the space between the client and the therapist is central to the process of therapy.
My focus is on creating a shared confidential and safe space, where you can navigate your internal world and make sense of what you experience.
I see therapy as a co-creation, something we work on together. I meet you, my client, as a fellow human being.
