"Life can only be understood backwards; but it must be lived forwards.”
---- Søren Kierkegaard
An Enactive and Sense-making Approach to Psychotherapy
Are you looking for space to explore certain aspects of yourself that you may find confusing, uncomfortable, overwhelming, or bewildering?
My psychotherapeutic approach is to support you in creating space to re-engage the ways in which you creatively engage in the world.
