Clinical psychologists are trained in a variety of modalities and their are different schools of thought in psychology.
I work from a person centred approach using Integrative Interactional Psychotherapy (Applied Systems Theory) and the Interactional Pattern Analysis (IPA) in assisting my clients. This means I look holistically at what my client is dealing with and how their relationships and whole environment is impacting on them. I consider relationships, environments, health, wellness, and total functioning in assisting my clients towards healing and personal growth. Within my work, I draw on various techniques and approaches that would more optimally assist my clients with their unique struggles.
