How I Work
‘… Rather than just getting rid of bad feelings, I’ll help you face the scary things inside you, so you can follow a different path.’
From soothing and managing the pain of a debilitating illness, dealing with extreme forms of violence, and having the right psychological tools to get over trauma and reduce stress. To improving one’s inner mental state – and by doing so, creating a feeling of calmness, creativity and clearer focus. I believe that my step-by-step approach to solving problems, and preventing new ones, is as practical as it is deeply empathetic and non-judgemental.
I don’t ‘label’ you with symptoms, but encourage you to accept fearful and challenging experiences. And rather than simply getting rid of bad feelings, I’ll help you face the scary things inside you, so you can follow a different path.
With me as your guide, I’ll usually begin a session by finding the most effective, evidence based therapeutic methods – such as Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Mindfulness-Based Cognitive Therapy (MBCT) and Mindfulness and Meditation for Trauma (MMT). I also use Reflective Thinking and Reflective Discussion methods to enable you to gain insights about your challenges and how to overcome them successfully.
Combining psychotherapy with some principles and techniques of Tibetan Bön, you’ll develop solutions within yourself, and take better control of your thought processes as a result.
