This Isn't Your Average Therapy Session

Move Beyond Listening - Therapy That Truly Meets You

Perhaps you've experienced therapy before. You might have found comfort, gained insights, or learned coping mechanisms. Yet, perhaps like many I've spoken with, you still felt something was missing – a more active engagement, a connection that resonated beyond the clinical hour, a sense that the full depth of you wasn't quite seen or met. Shoehorned into a box, treated more like a problem than a person.

If that resonates, I want to talk about a different kind of therapeutic journey.

Navigating Purposefully Beyond Traditional Boundaries

My approach to psychotherapy intentionally moves beyond some of the more rigid, traditional boundaries you might expect. This isn't about being unprofessional or unethical – quite the opposite. Upholding the highest ethical standards is the basis on which this is built. Instead, it's about consciously creating a space for genuine human connection, recognising that profound healing often happens within the context of a relationship that feels real, dynamic, and alive.

Active Engagement: Catching, Meeting, Lifting

This isn't just a space to talk about your problems. It's an active, engaged partnership. Drawing from broad integrated training and lived experience, I work with you – catching the subtle nuances, meeting you exactly where you are without judgment, and work to collaboratively find ways to lift you towards your highest potential and deepest integration. We explore together, question together, challenge together, focusing always on the path that matters.

The Potential for Deep Connection (If You Seek It)

Many clients have described experiencing a profound, sometimes even "soul level" connection in this work. This isn't a mystical accident; it's facilitated by the way we engage – with presence, authenticity, and dedicated support both during and between sessions (within agreed boundaries).

This depth isn't for everyone, nor is it pushed. But for those who yearn for a space where they can feel truly seen and deeply understood on multiple levels, the capacity for that connection is intentionally cultivated. It moves beyond outdated 'therapist' and 'client' labels that can create distance, fostering instead a respectful, human-to-human exploration.

Grounded in Integrated Wisdom

It might be holistic, but this way of working isn't arbitrary, "woo woo" or based on the more questionable answers to the human condition. It's built upon a rigorous clinical foundation, forged through intensive cognitive-behavioural training (CBT), evolving into Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), refined through long term Zen practice, and eventually integrating the Existential, Transpersonal, Somatic. Starting with radical acceptance, we find the safety we need to change.

This breadth allows me to draw from a rich tapestry of tools and perspectives, shaping a bespoke therapeutic journey tailored specifically to your unique needs, history, and aspirations.

"Experience-First" Technology

My background as a software engineer equips me to carefully use the best of artificial intelligence and deep learning to explore new ways of enhancing your own growth - helping us to capture, retain and act upon the details crucial for your transformation.

Is This Path for You?

If you're seeking more than surface-level adjustments, if you desire a therapeutic relationship that engages your whole being – mind, body, and spirit – and if you're ready for an active partnership in your healing and growth, then this approach might be what you've been looking for.

It requires courage and a willingness to explore deeply, but the potential rewards are profound - personal transformation and a deeper sense of connection to yourself and the world.
