“The day came when the risk to remain tight in a bud was more painful than the risk it took to blossom.”
|
Lily comes to the profession of psychotherapy as an extension of her 10+ years of work within the Alternative Health and Wellness field. She realized that as she worked in this community that there was more to uncover, to understand and by becoming a therapist she would expand her capacity to help clients heal. As a therapist Lily brings the qualities of wisdom, authenticity, empathy, warmth, curiosity and a deep commitment to creating a therapeutic plan based on her client’s individual needs, not on only one particular approach or way of working.
|
Lily’s therapeutic approach is to first establish safety. She believes that often the pain and struggles client bring to sessions are created within relationships and can be best healed in relationship. Trusting the therapist and believing that one is accurately seen can lead to deeper explorations that can assist the client to move forward and make the changes the client desires.
