Psychology/ Counselling/ Social Work
Clinical therapy is designed to support individuals and couples in improving their overall quality of life by providing effective tools and strategies. The therapeutic process begins with an initial consultation and assessment for both individual and couples therapy, which helps to inform the development of a personalized treatment plan and set clear goals.
I offer a range of therapeutic modalities, including Gottman Method Couples Therapy, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavioural Therapy (DBT), Life Process Transformation (a Humanistic/Existential approach), Solution-Focused Brief Therapy, and an Attachment-Based approach. Additionally, my practice incorporates a strength-based and trauma-informed perspective, along with a biopsychosocial framework, to ensure a holistic and comprehensive approach to therapy for both individuals and couples.
