Approach Description: I prefer to work in multi-modal ways, seeking to respond to what the client brings and is receptive to and works best. We assess what the avenues are that give us entry to understand the challenges, and we use these approaches. I am trained in psychodynamic, self-psychology, object-relations, and intersubjective approaches but also find psychoeducation and cognitive and behavioural aspects very useful.
