My therapeutic approach centres on recognizing how our identities within relationships shape us (family, work, marriage etc). It emphasizes empathetic care and acknowledges each person's uniqueness. By fostering an environment of understanding and compassion, I focus on helping individuals succeed in their personal growth. This approach emphasizes the value of seeing and genuinely caring for each individual, promoting healing through connection, self-discovery, and mutual respect.

Psychotherapy is a therapeutic process involving confidential conversations between a trained therapist and an individual, couple, or group. It aims to address emotional difficulties, mental health issues, and behavioural challenges.

Psychotherapy facilitates personal growth, enhances self-awareness, and helps individuals navigate life's complexities more effectively.

LENS (Low Energy Neurofeedback System) therapy is a non-invasive neurofeedback technique. It involves gentle electromagnetic pulses to stimulate brainwave activity, aiming to regulate brain function and calm the nervous system. LENS address’s conditions like anxiety, depression, ADHD, and cognitive issues. LENS is painless and doesn't require conscious effort from the client. LENS therapy aims to improve emotional regulation, and cognitive performance.

EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) therapy is a structured psychotherapy approach primarily used for trauma treatment. It involves bilateral stimulation, like eye movements or taps, to help process distressing memories and associated emotions. EMDR aims to alleviate the emotional charge of traumatic experiences, such as post-traumatic street disorder (PTSD), allowing individuals to reprocess and integrate memories more adaptively. This technique fosters emotional healing and can lead to reduced distress, improved mental health, and enhanced overall functioning.

Integrating EMDR and LENS holds promise in offering a holistic approach to healing. EMDR targets traumatic memories and their emotional impact, while LENS supports brainwave regulation, aiding emotional regulation and cognitive function. Together, they address psychological and physiological aspects, potentially accelerating the therapeutic process and promoting comprehensive recovery. This integration harnesses the power of both therapies to provide a more encompassing and personalized solution for trauma-related challenges.
