This is a space dedicated to You.
Within it, unknown, forgotten or repressed layers of your experience may begin to surface and be expressed. Together we listen to them and welcome them simply for what they are, without an agenda for change.
We are curious and open. We do not know in advance.
To begin with, it may seem like an unravelling but in fact it is the gentle and organic process of allowing your true and authentic being to emerge like a seed out of the earth.
We allow and gently investigate the suffering that you find yourself experiencing: the chronic feeling of depression, the persistent sense of lack, the overwhelming anxiety, the grief, the trauma, the stuck relationship, the unbeatable addiction. We uncover the inherited beliefs that are their seeds and their dynamism. We hear your questions.
To support this process we use pathways from traditions and modalities such as psychodynamic psychotherapy, somatic inquiry, non-dual meditation, Kashmir Shivaism and imaginal Jungian based practices.
In time, the feelings and habits that dominate your everyday life, sabotage your wellbeing and compromise your relationships to others and your creativity, are met and identified. They begin to unwind naturally like an old skin falling away to reveal a fuller, more embodied you, no longer at odds with yourself and with the greater whole.
This investigation is not an intellectual exercise but rather an alchemical process that takes place in a field of relationship. As we remain open and unknowing, we may recognise our shared Presence as our true and essential nature, unchanging and ever-present.
“Quiet friend who has come so far,
feel how your breathing makes more space around you.
Let this darkness be a bell tower
and you the bell. As you ring,
what batters you becomes your strength.
Move back and forth into the change.”
〜Rainer Marie Rilke

Please note that I require a 48-hour cancellation notice. I understand that unexpected problems come up in our busy lives and would much prefer not to charge for missed sessions, but I need to make open hours available to clients, who are waiting for appointments and protect my own time as well. However, if it is possible to reschedule you for the same week, I will waive this policy.

All information shared during therapy sessions remains strictly confidential. There are some exceptions that I have outlined in the Informed Consent Form, which I will give when we meet.
If you need a concession, please do not hesitate to contact me.
