I will work with you as a unique human being, try to understand your experience, and through establishing a good connection and trust help you achieve what you need.
A space that is truly yours
When you are in therapy, the 50 minutes you spend with your therapist can feel like you have the freedom to talk your thoughts or feelings, be fully listened to, without judgement. This is something that doesn't normally happen in everyday life — so, in this way, it is "another place".
Sometimes it might feel like everything is on top of you and you can't get a hold of your life. Sometimes it may feel like you are the only one suffering. Are you stuck in those old patterns of behaviour that are stopping you from achieving what you want from your life? Is anxiety preventing you from living better? Maybe you are feeling that your inner critic is giving you such a hard time that you cannot be yourself. Maybe you have lost yourself somewhere on the way…
Whatever it is, you don't have to face it alone. You can take control of your life and change whatever doesn't work for you.
Take control of your life
You may feel like your life does not belong to you or that you don't have much control of it. Maybe you are not making conscious decisions and are "just going with the flow". Maybe you feel like a passive observer and things "just happen".
Changing from acting on unconscious urges to making conscious decisions in your life can be empowering.
Discover your real self
Do you ever wonder who the real you is, what the real you likes, or even feels? Whether you can be real with yourself, or whether your friends and colleagues actually see the real you?
We may have had to develop a certain way of being in order to interact with others more successfully — be it our parents, siblings, friends, colleagues, or society. But who is the real self beneath all those identities?
In therapy, you can work on accessing your real self, the real you. A process that, although challenging, can leave you enriched and may open up new channels in your life.
