Psychotherapy:
Sessions are psychodynamic in orientation, also drawing on relational, existential, narrative and gestalt therapy insights. In-session Socratic dialogue, free-association, intersubjectivity and transference awareness are also used.
Towards well-being and mental health:
Below the surface is depth in our human experience -in ourselves and each other. How can we listen to this more? Being aware of one's needs and feelings, next to others', with calm assertiveness, centered in warm-hearted values is arguably one useful way.
Personal well-being is our natural equilibrium, but things can sometimes go awry. A broken-heart, or an absent or terribly scolding parent can defeat or hamper us as people. To cope and to be fully you - as we are meant to be - one needs to dig deep, and offer oneself the chance to reflect usefully. Therapy is a way of addressing core personal stories that we carry, and the symptoms that they can bring.
