Philosophy:
In my role as therapist, I take the opportunity to consult with clients as the experts of their own lives, of how they think and how they do. I view the work that we do together as a series of healing conversations whereby we engage in a journey through the process of dialogue, storytelling and exploration which enable us as a team to look for the answers together. As therapist and client, our mutually motivated and active participation in this process is essential to its level of success. This means coming to our meetings prepared - coming with questions or goals, or simply a basic willingness to explore your story. This process can be messy sometimes, may involve frustration, pressure, and challenge and above all requires patience. But from it, my hope is that my discussions with clients will allow for richer descriptions, more dynamic explorations of their purpose and improved opportunities for wider options of their being.
