Psychotherapy:
My approach is from psychodynamic and relational psychotherapy and also embraces existential therapy and gestalt therapy. In my work I like to suggest one can:
'Reject the projection'
Towards assertive confidence.'Psychology is a language'
'Solidarity'
Positive and honest relatedness to oneself and others.
Towards well-being and mental health:
Below the surface is depth in our human experience -in ourselves and each other. How can we listen to this more? Being aware of one's needs and feelings, next to others', with calm assertiveness, centered in warm-hearted values is arguably one useful way.
Personal well-being is our natural equilibrium, but things can sometimes go awry. A broken-heart, or an absent or terribly scolding parent can break us as people. To cope and to be fully you - as we are meant to be - one needs to dig deep, and offer oneself the chance to heal. Therapy is a way of semi-formally addressing core personal stories that we carry, and the symptoms that they can manifest in us.
