A Little Bit About Individual Counseling
Individual counseling is one-on-one counseling and is confidential in nature. This means that what we talk about in our sessions stays between us.
During our first session, we get to know each other. I will introduce the Counseling Agreement and explain how I work, while you will have the opportunity to talk about what brought you to counseling. After this session, we both decide whether we would like to work together.
Who I work with
I offer individual counseling to adults aged 18 and older.
Some of the areas I focus on include anxiety, relationship difficulties, loss, trauma, emotional and narcissistic abuse, sexual abuse, and incest. I also support people going through the postpartum period or living with chronic illnesses.
I don’t offer addiction treatment.
How I work
In my work, I focus on understanding what you are experiencing and how it affects your everyday life.
We explore your past, especially how certain experiences might still influence you today. Some clients want to focus more on their past than others, and I adjust my approach to what feels right for you.
But understanding why something happens is only part of the work. We also look at how to approach difficult situations and develop new ways of dealing with them, including learning new skills.
An important part of my work is helping you become more aware of your emotions and how you experience them in your body.
Broadly speaking, therapy involves expanding our awareness. As we become more aware of our emotions, triggers, and automatic reactions, we create space to make a conscious choice about how we want to respond, rather than simply reacting.
Practical information
Sessions take place once a week, at a time we agree on together.
