Attachment-based therapy focuses on understanding how early relationships and attachments shape emotional patterns, behavior, and connection styles in adulthood. By exploring your attachment history, we can uncover any patterns that may impact your relationships and personal well-being. This approach helps clients develop healthier, more secure connections by identifying and healing attachment wounds, improving emotional regulation, and fostering a deeper sense of trust and safety. In our work together, I will support you in recognizing these patterns and empower you to build stronger, more fulfilling relationships by cultivating emotional awareness and healing old wounds.

EFT, often referred to as "tapping," is based on the idea that negative emotions and psychological issues can be linked to disruptions in the body's energy system. By tapping on specific meridian points while focusing on the emotional issue, practitioners aim to restore balance and reduce distress.

EFT can benefit a wide range of individuals, including those experiencing anxiety, stress, trauma, or emotional challenges such as anger and grief. It’s also useful for those seeking personal growth, like enhancing self-esteem and confidence.

Through mindfulness practices like meditation, clients learn to manage stress, reduce anxiety, and break free from negative thought patterns.

By cultivating mindfulness, clients can foster deeper self-awareness, improve mental clarity, and develop a greater sense of peace and well-being.

Somatic Experiencing (SE) works by helping individuals become more aware of the physical sensations and emotions they are experiencing. The counsellor may use a variety of techniques to help clients tune into their bodies, such as breathing exercises, meditation, or movement therapy.

In SE, clients are not asked to fully engage with traumatic memories and reactions which is more likely to keep them within their window of tolerance (where the client is able to function most effectively).

SE is particularly effective for individuals who have experienced traumatic events. In these events they have learned that their body is no longer a safe place and have therefore disconnected in the hopes of finding safety elsewhere. In somatic work you will learn how to come back home to your body and how to recreate a sense of safety.

Clients are encouraged to explore their spiritual beliefs, whether rooted in religion, philosophy, or a more personal spiritual journey. It helps people reconnect with their core sense of meaning, purpose, and connection to the universe or a higher power.

This type of counseling is holistic, recognizing the interconnectedness of our mental, emotional, physical, and spiritual well-being. Techniques such as meditation, visualization, energy healing, and mindfulness practices may be used to help individuals align with their spiritual truths.
