Individual Counselling

My Approach

I believe that how we are as an adult has often been ‘learned’ in childhood in relationship to our primary caregivers. You may have learned to always put the needs of others before your own. To base your self-worth on how successful you are in your career. To suppress your emotions and make yourself small, or avoid conflict at all cost. These learned patterns may have served you well as a child, but may now be leading to anxiety, burnout, or low self-esteem.

Rather than trying to “fix” what is “wrong” with you, I invite you to get curious about why you are the way you are. I may guide you to identify the different parts of you, the part that is relentlessly oriented towards growth, or the part that instinctively minimizes your needs. Together, we can befriend those parts, make peace with them, and perhaps even have a good laugh with them. Somewhere inside, there is likely a small voice that yearns to be heard. Let’s witness that voice together.

Accepting ourselves as we are (the good, the bad, the downright weird) often leads naturally to creativity, resilience, and healthy boundaries. And at the end of our work, I hope we can land in that deep sense of calm that comes from truly knowing that you are enough, and that you are going to be okay.
