I offer a balanced set of approaches that I will apply to suit your needs. Some people are better helped with insights into their patterns; others may need more skills, and again others may feel they need to release and heal old wounds. I am an advocate of trying out new behaviour, as this creates the biggest shifts and minimizes relapse. I integrate lifestyle factors such as nutrition when necessary. Because when the chemicals aren't right, talking isn't going to lift your mood. We will always explore the very source of your issues, relating it to your system; are there patterns in the family that you may be repeating? As such, we radically release and uproot your issue and make change more effortless.

I use a lot of imagery. This creates new adaptive neurological pathways, replacing maladaptive ones. In addition, it helps understanding where our problem comes from, e.g. often our problem doesn't stand alone but is embedded in our family system. Knowing this makes letting go easier and more profound; lasting.

Due to my experience and systemic background, I have deep knowledge of immigration, war trauma, infertility, adoption, addiction, and chronic illness, so I can offer profound understanding. The added systemic approach generally makes processes go quicker and more thorough, making healing easier and forgiving; rendering (self-)blame or guilt irrelevant.
