The initial session is an active therapeutic session, with the work beginning from the outset. Alongside working with what is present in the moment, this session may also involve gently exploring relevant personal history, developmental experiences, and relational context, where helpful. Emotional experience is approached directly, while remaining carefully attuned to your capacity, pace, and sense of safety.

Ongoing sessions continue the therapeutic work in a focused and responsive way. Sessions may involve working with present-moment emotional experience and revisiting historical, developmental, or relational themes as they emerge and are relevant to the work. The pace is guided collaboratively, with attention to emotional processing, relational patterns, and integration over time.

Couples and family sessions focus on the emotional and relational dynamics between people, rather than assigning blame or taking sides. Sessions may explore communication patterns, emotional responses, attachment needs, and relevant historical or developmental contexts. The aim is to support greater understanding, emotional safety, and more flexible ways of relating, while remaining attuned to the capacity and readiness of all involved.
