Counselling and Psychology can sometimes feel clinical and impersonal. We do things differently.
I feel a great therapist is considerate, warm and patient who listens to the needs of her clients. As a Social Worker in Private Practice with the foundation of a Psychology Degree, I use a holistic approach that is tailored to each persons unique and individual situation.
Using evidence-based psychological theories to normalise your current situation, and realistic achievable strategies to make a positive difference when you leave each session. All parties are heard equally and have the space to express their perspective, ultimately building stronger empathetic connections.
