I do not practice CBT and I have a specific interest in an Integrative approach (Humanistic and Psychospiritual models) based always on the therapeutic relationship, how and what we do together in the sessions.
I support anti-oppressive ideas and practice and I am very aware that therapy can be a space where shame and power dynamics can be triggered. I intend to create a very safe space where what needs to happen will happen. I believe that given the right conditions and support, we all sense and know what we need and are looking for. I trust that all we are and what we do is the best we can do given the conditions of our life. I am against a shaming model that implies that “we can always do better”. By being truly what we are, life might show us new options and ways of relating to each other.
I work creatively (also there is the possibility to use art materials for those who might want that, but it’s not a requirement) and do not expect me to ask you to lie on a couch or for me to be simply an interpreter of what you say. I believe that what you say is what you mean and I do not need to find any hidden meaning. I am against a therapy of suspicion and believe in a therapy of trust.
I am open to challenging exchanges between us, when the time is right. I believe that within a relationship based on trust we can dare more.
In our first session you will have a sense of who I am and how we might work. I will have the option to see if what you bring is something I feel ready to work with. My work is supervised so I feel I am well supported in deciding if something is beyond my professional limits. This is in your best interest.
