"Before we shape life, life shapes us", says Gabor Maté. I've always been intrigued by how people become who they are. There are experiences in life that shape us that we don't even remember. I've spent a lot of time studying trauma and early childhood experiences to understand this.
I use a trauma-informed, mindfulness-based and person-centered approach along with compassionate inquiry to dig underneath the surface of what is happening now to get to the root causes and adaptations.
In our first session I start with a thoughtful and inquisitive gathering of information to help me paint a picture of who you are and how you got to be who you are in life. We look at current life struggles and experiences in the past that have impacted you in your life and made you the person you are now.
