My approach to psychotherapy and counselling can be seen as ‘social interactive’. I work with a response-based approach to living which celebrates dignity, resistance to mistreatment, and alignment with social justice and collective well-being. My practice is relational; at times solution-focused and aimed at highlighting one’s capacities and intelligence. With an astute social analysis in the face of oppression, I aim to help others understand how the collective pain of oppression affects us. Central to my work is helping others make meaning of their life situation, how they unleash their creativity, and aspire to grow and transcend. Having a safe place to examine one’s feelings and thought processes is ultimately important for healing.
