Individual Psychotherapy
““Many people suffer from the fear of finding oneself alone, and so they don’t find themselves at all.””
As a psychotherapist, the symptoms, whether emotional or physical, wake us up to the past, that lives in us and within our significant relationships. The beliefs we carry from our past also form the foundation of our sense of self. We continue to live our lives with deep-seated beliefs that direct our actions, thoughts, and feelings. Developing awareness about the impact of our past in how it exists in our sense of self, and our relationships is the first step in self-awareness. The ability to have a clearer view of our life narrative allows for developing self-compassion and trusting in the expression and meaning of emotional and physical states.
I also work with the unconscious and believe the space between what is known and unknown is where we become unstuck. This is the in-between in us where our dreams and imagination exist, the Self. As a psychotherapist, I provide space and opportunities to allow for this emergence through creativity and somatic practices that provide another potential that brings us beyond our everyday thoughts and feelings to something deeper within us, our essential Self.
