Relational Therapy
You’ve tried therapy before and felt disconnected from the therapist, like you were never fully understood. It can be a struggle to find a therapist that you feel connected to, let alone safe with. Everyone has their own way of working with clients, but all the acronyms and types of therapy get confusing and don't really mean anything to you. You just want to be heard, to be seen, to feel like the person you're sharing your deepest self with ACTUALLY gets it - actually gets you.
I understand this struggle.
Compassionate Therapy Can Help
That's why I focus on the relational model. This model asserts that true change is created not by techniques and interventions, but through the relationship created between therapist and client. The therapeutic relationship has been proven time and time again to be one of the greatest agents of change within therapy. Our relationships are key to understanding our behaviors, patterns, beliefs about ourselves and others, and they are all rooted with in the attachments we create when we are young.
Through the therapeutic relationship, you can gain clarity and awareness of why you are who you are, and then how you can begin to grow and heal. This isn't just talk therapy - this is a continuous, collaborative, experiential space that we create together, which can have profound impact on how you see yourself and how you shape your world.
This method utilizes the relationship between us as a dynamic force within the therapy room and harnesses this for insight and transformation.
