My Approach
Every person is unique, and I tailor therapy to meet your individual needs. My approach is compassionate, non-judgmental, and collaborative, ensuring that you feel heard and understood throughout our time together. Psychodynamic therapy is about creating a deeper connection with yourself, helping you understand the 'why' behind your struggles, and discovering new possibilities for growth and healing.
