IS COUNSELLING CONFIDENTIAL?

Privacy and confidentiality are the cornerstones of my work. I am committed to maintain the integrity of your personal information. Only under some specific parameters – such as imminent danger, a minor at risk, or a court subpoena would I be required to take appropriate steps to maintain safety.
WHAT CAN I EXPECT IN OUR WORK TOGETHER?
-
In our work together, we may explore your core beliefs, triggers, attachments, and childhood experiences that have left emotional imprints on your present day struggles.

In our work together, you can expect to be heard and understood. You can also expect a deeper understanding about the experiences that you have had that have shaped your personal life narrative and find more adaptive ways of coping as well as concrete tools and strategies.

I apply a hybrid model based on Cognitive Behaviour Therapy (CBT), Mindfulness Based Cognitive Therapy (MBCT), Existential Psychotherapy, Narrative Psychology, Attachment Theory, EMDR, Psychodynamic and Positive Psychology.

WHAT IS YOUR CANCELLATION POLICY?
