Psychosythesis
My approach
I work using an approach called psychosynthesis, which is a form of psychotherapy that helps people understand themselves more deeply and move toward a more balanced and meaningful life.
It was developed by Italian psychiatrist Roberto Assagioli, and is based on the idea that we are more than our difficulties or past experiences. Alongside our struggles, we also have strengths, inner resources, and a deeper sense of direction that can sometimes feel hard to access when life feels overwhelming.
In therapy, we don’t just focus on what has gone wrong — we also explore what helps you feel more grounded, connected, and clear about yourself and your life.
What this can look like in practice
Depending on what you need, therapy may help you:
-
make sense of anxiety, stress, or emotional overwhelm
-
understand repeating patterns in relationships or life choices
-
rebuild self-worth and confidence
-
feel more connected to yourself and your direction in life
We work at your pace, and the process is always shaped around what feels most helpful for you.
How I use psychosynthesis
Psychosynthesis provides a framework for understanding different aspects of experience — including thoughts, emotions, body awareness, and deeper values or needs.
In sessions, I may draw on talking therapy, reflective exploration, mindfulness, and other creative or experiential approaches where helpful.
