Therapy sessions in Cape Town:
Psychotherapy is a space to hear your reflections authentically and clearly. In considering mental health matters we seek in psychotherapy to address what our psychological-emotional needs are, what they may be associated with, and how we can respond to them. Therapy is a place for hearing the stories that people carry, and finding ways to answer personal questions and address psychological experience warmly and helpfully. I often work with:
- Symptoms of anxiety: As human beings we have a strong, highly-attuned response to danger and stress that is physiologically automatic and neurochemically potent in its effects on for example breathing and heart rate. We feel fear, overwhelm or self-consciousness; we feel uncertain.
- Signs of depression: Depression can involve a loss of interest in things previously enjoyed, long-lasting low mood, low motivation, indecision, low energy, and a sense of hopelessness or meaninglessness. Depression can present a challenge to the self, which we seek to answer.
