At Empathics, I take a holistic and integrative approach to mental health, blending evidence-based therapies with a compassionate, client-centered focus. My goal is to create a collaborative, supportive space where you feel heard, understood, and empowered on your healing journey.
Counselling and Psychotherapy are both talking therapies designed to improve mental and emotional well-being, but they vary in depth and duration. Counselling tends to focus on immediate, specific concerns such as stress, relationship challenges, or life transitions, usually offered as short-term work over 6 to 12 weeks. It provides practical strategies to help you manage current difficulties and build resilience. Psychotherapy, by contrast, explores deeper emotional patterns, past experiences, and core beliefs to foster profound self-understanding and lasting change. This longer-term process supports healing from trauma, attachment issues, family-of-origin wounds, and complex emotional challenges.
Couples counselling is included within this approach, providing a safe, supportive environment for partners to improve communication, address conflicts, rebuild trust, and deepen their connection. Whether navigating specific difficulties or seeking to grow your relationship, counselling and psychotherapy work collaboratively to meet your individual or shared needs.
Sandplay Therapy: Sandplay therapy offers a unique, creative, and non-verbal way to explore and express feelings. Using miniature figures and scenes arranged in a sand tray, this therapy helps access unconscious emotions, process trauma, and regulate difficult feelings. It is especially valuable for those who find verbal expression challenging and is suitable for all ages, including children.
Mindfulness-Based Therapies: Mindfulness practices support emotional balance by cultivating present-moment awareness and reducing stress and anxiety. These can be offered as standalone sessions or integrated with other therapeutic approaches, teaching meditation, mindful breathing, and awareness techniques that promote calm and resilience. I also provide a structured 8-week mindfulness training program, guiding you progressively through practical skills that enhance daily well-being, emotional regulation, and stress management.
Coaching Services: I offer coaching tailored to support both personal development and professional growth. Through a collaborative and goal-focused approach, I help you clarify your objectives, overcome obstacles, and develop actionable strategies to create meaningful, lasting change in your life. Whether you’re seeking greater confidence, career transitions, or personal growth, coaching provides practical tools and motivation to help you move forward with clarity and purpose.
Corporate Services: I work closely with corporate clients and organizations to promote employee wellbeing and enhance workplace culture.
