Question: What is your approach to therapy? Answer: "I draw from a variety of approaches including Cognitive behavioural therapy, solution focused and mindfulness-based approaches. My heart of practice has been person-centered or Humanistic therapy which places the highest regard when it comes to acceptance, empathy and motivation to help clients realize their own potential. I usually ask my clients about their goals and discussing the treatment options that are available. Then we work together with the aim for best course of action, this allows them to be an active participant in decision making process. I usually give importance to feedback as it allows me to adjust my approach based on their unique situations."
