My Approach

When clients are informed and educated at a deep level about their issues and the root-cause of these issues, it helps to reduce shame and bring forth curiosity. It helps empower them to change in the areas they wish. 

This modality helps people uncover their subconscious patterns and behaviours. We uncover their attachment style, whether it's Anxious, Dismissive Avoidant, Fearful Avoidant or Secure Attachment. This modality shines a light on what we do in relationships and why. Once we can see things through an attachment lens, the road to transformation becomes a lot clearer and simpler to navigate. 

Talk therapy has its place, but in order to completely heal and transform, we need to 'Feel it to heal it.' We can't talk our way out of a feeling problem. This is where somatic (Soma = body) modalities come into play. Gently and safely, we process stored emotions and trauma out of the nervous system. 

An important lens to be able to see people through in order to address issues from the root-cause. If we don't address issues from the root-cause, then we will remain stuck, cycling through the same issues over and over again. Band-aid approaches might feel good short term, but they never last. 

Helping people to be with their triggers and learn how to emotionally regulate instead of unconsciously reacting. Education around Fight, Flight, Freeze and Fawn - Their functions and how to shift into Rest and Digest, and Social Engagement. 

Mindfulness based behavioural therapy that helps individuals live a more meaningful life by accepting difficult thoughts and feelings while committing to actions aligned with their values. 

Helps to recondition/reprogram the mind from a subconscious level. I pair it with somatic therapy in order to make the process whole. Trauma is stored in the body, which is why intellectual/cognitive healing is only a part of the process. 

Reparenting the parts of us that were wounded in childhood and being the loving parent to ourselves now in order to heal/integrate those parts. An understanding that we are all made up of different parts, parts that protect, parts that are wounded, parts that are light and dark.
