Modalities

I draw from a range of therapeutic and systemic approaches that support insight, healing, and meaningful change. Everything we do is tailored to your needs, your pace, and what feels supportive in the moment.

Below is a short explanation of the approaches I use.

                                           

Core Approaches

A client-centred psychotherapy

A warm, empathic, and accepting presence where you can feel heard, understood, and supported.

 

Trauma-informed psychotherapy

Honouring your pace, your boundaries, and your nervous system while supporting healing and regulation.

 

A neuro-affirming approach 

Respecting and supporting neurodiversity with understanding, attunement, and care.

 

Therapeutic Approaches

 

IFS (Internal Family Systems)

A gentle way of understanding the different parts of you, especially the ones that feel hurt, protective, or overwhelmed, so they can soften and heal.

 

EFT (Emotion Focused Therapy)

Supporting emotional awareness and connection by working with core feelings and relational patterns.

 

Sand, art, and play therapies

Creative, expressive approaches that help children, teens, and adults process emotions safely and naturally.

 

Couples therapy

Drawing on the Gottman Method, EFT, and IFS to help partners communicate clearly, understand each other deeply, and rebuild connection.

 

 

Systemic and Professional Work

 

Family and systemic constellations

Revealing hidden dynamics in your family or relational system so you can release old patterns and move forward with clarity.

Systemic leadership coaching

Understanding the broader systems that shape your life, relationships, or work, and creating meaningful, sustainable change.

Clinical supervision

Reflective, supportive guidance for therapists and practitioners who want to deepen their skills, stay grounded, and work with integrity.

 

A gentle note

You do not need to know any of these approaches before we begin. We simply follow what feels most supportive for you.
