Individual therapy for when you can’t find the words.

What people bring

Common reasons to start

• Anxiety and emotions that feel too big to manage
• A life transition: a move, a breakup, a new role, a loss
• Relationship strain, or the same painful pattern with different people
• Questions of identity and belonging, especially between cultures
• Stress, exhaustion and feeling stuck
• A harsh inner critic that never clocks out

Approach

How I work with individuals

Present-moment awareness

From Gestalt therapy: what is happening right now, in your body, in your voice, in the room, often says more than the story about it. We slow down enough to notice.

Practical tools

From cognitive behavioral therapy: concrete strategies for the thoughts and habits that keep anxiety and low mood going, and for regulating strong emotions when they arrive.

Understanding your relational map

From attachment-informed therapy: how your earliest relationships shaped what you expect from people now, and how to update that map.

Building on what works

From strength-based and solution-focused therapy: you have already survived a great deal. We identify what helped and use it deliberately.

If part of what you are carrying is a life lived between countries or languages, see therapy for immigrants and expats.
