Psychotherapy is a healing process in which the relationship between the client and therapist provides the foundation for transformation, self-discovery, and healing. It offers a unique opportunity to deeply understand yourself—your needs, your resources, and your strengths—while empowering you to make more informed life choices.

Through psychotherapy, you can gain insight into your inner world, process difficult emotions, and find peace with what you cannot change. It equips you with tools to navigate life's challenges with more confidence and clarity. Psychotherapy also helps uncover unconscious patterns that may be holding you back, and works to release them using a variety of therapeutic methods.

Transpersonal psychotherapy is one of the most holistic forms of therapy, addressing the mind, body, and soul. It integrates modern psychology with spiritual traditions from around the world, viewing life as a soul journey where spiritual growth and the search for meaning are essential. From a transpersonal perspective, we are not just individuals with psychological experiences—we are spiritual beings.

As an integrative approach, transpersonal psychotherapy draws from various therapeutic modalities, including:

• Psychodynamic Therapy – Explores how past experiences and unconscious processes shape current behaviors, emotions and relationships

• Gestalt Therapy – Emphasizes personal responsibility and self-awareness in the present moment while exploring the connection between thoughts, emotions, and bodily sensations.

• Existential Therapy – Examines themes of meaning, freedom, responsibility, and mortality, helping clients to live more authentically and make conscious life choices.

• Person-Centered Therapy – Provides a supportive, non-judgmental space. As a therapist working with this approach I am guided by empathy, congruence, and unconditional positive regard.

The transpersonal approach also incorporates tools such as mindfulness meditation, yogic breathwork, parts work, creative imagination (visualizations), sand tray therapy, and rituals. These techniques are particularly effective because they bypass conscious cognitive processes, engaging the unconscious mind and facilitating deeper transformation through embodied experience.

At first, sessions will resemble typical integrative psychotherapy sessions. I will draw from a wide range of approaches, including psychodynamic psychotherapy, existential psychotherapy, person-centered psychotherapy, Gestalt therapy, and a blend of somatic therapies.

As our therapeutic relationship develops, we may incorporate additional techniques such as visualizations, dreamwork, sand tray (if working in person), and drawing. I may also introduce transpersonal concepts and tools to support your healing journey. Ultimately, the direction of our work will depend on your unique needs, as no two clients are the same.

You can talk about anything you'd like. These sessions are your space, free from judgment, where no topic is off-limits. You might explore relationship challenges, sexual concerns, questions around gender identity, or matters of spirituality. It's also a place to express worries about the climate crisis, global events, or personal fears, such as the fear of death. Whether you're searching for purpose, navigating work struggles, facing life transitions, or reflecting on your past and present, your thoughts, hopes, dreams, and anxieties about the future are all welcome here.

Confidentiality is a fundamental part of therapy. It allows you to speak freely about anything on your mind, including topics that may feel distressing or sensitive. Your personal details and session notes are kept strictly confidential.

There are, however, a few exceptions to confidentiality:

• If required by law, such as when a court orders disclosure or when I must provide information to solicitors or professional insurers.

• If I need to defend myself against professional complaints or legal proceedings.

• If there is evidence of risk to the health, welfare, or safety of a child or vulnerable adult.

• If you are at serious risk of harming yourself or others.

If confidentiality ever needs to be breached, I will discuss it with you first. 

As part of professional practice, I am required to receive supervision to ensure high-quality care and client’s safety. Supervisors are also bound by confidentiality. No identifying details are shared with them.

The length of therapy depends on your individual needs and circumstances. Some clients take longer to build trust in the therapeutic relationship, feel comfortable opening up, and reach a point where they’re ready to work on a deeper level. Others may find this process happens more quickly. Wherever you are in your journey, we will always move at your pace.

As we work together, you might also uncover new insights or challenges you hadn’t been fully aware of, which could mean you need more time than initially expected to explore and process them.

We will regularly review our progress, and if needed, we can adjust our approach to ensure it continues to meet your evolving needs.

I only offer weekly therapy. This is because consistency, regularity, and commitment are key to psychotherapy's effectiveness. Speaking from experience, only weekly sessions will allow us to work at a deep enough level to create lasting change.
