"I work from a client centred philosophy at all times; I place a priority on establishing a beneficial therapeutic relationship which I finds is the most powerful tool for producing change and positive outcomes from therapy. This includes a focus on empathic attunement, being present with and communicating care for my clients.
I also use a Emotional focussed approach to therapy: I am interested in working with deeper layers of emotions, and unconscious process that we may not be aware are impacting the way we live our lives."
