  • Our holistic approach to therapy aims to understand how identity, experiences and oppressive systems have impacted our clients’ symptoms and emotional distress.

    This starts by approaching their lived experiences with curiosity.

    As we set out to explore a client's internal world, we help them to name and build awareness of their thoughts, emotions and body sensations.

    In doing so, we begin to make meaning of clients’ experiences and co-create a shared language for understanding within the therapeutic relationship.

    From this foundation, treatment strategies are tailored to meet the individual needs and goals of each client.
