Therapeutic Approach
My clinical approach is integrative by conviction rather than convenience. I believe that no single theoretical framework captures the full complexity of human psychological experience, and that the most effective clinical work draws on multiple traditions in a coherent, principled way.
The frameworks I draw on most frequently include:
Attachment Theory
Understanding relational patterns through early attachment experiences and their lifelong influence.
Schema Therapy
Identifying and transforming the early maladaptive schemas that drive emotional and relational suffering.
Polyvagal Theory
Working with the autonomic nervous system to build safety, regulate arousal, and support social engagement.
Jungian Depth Psychology
Engaging with archetypes, shadow, and the symbolic dimensions of psychological transformation.
Internal Family Systems
Understanding the multiplicity of the psyche and working with protective and exiled parts.
Compassion-Focused Therapy
Cultivating self-compassion as an antidote to shame, self-criticism, and threat-based living.
