- Integrative Psychotherapist -
Sally is an integrative psychotherapist who endeavours to foster a therapeutic relationship of trust, warmth, curiosity & respect with her clients. Through a collaborative and relational approach, Sally seeks to attune to the individual needs of her clients, and offer a supportive space to come into deeper self understanding, compassion and wholeness. Sally holds the view that through deepening our connection with self, we create the conditions to foster more meaningful and fulfilling relationships with others, and with the world around us.
At the heart of Sally’s practice is a deep faith in each client’s innate capacity for transformation. She holds the perspective that we each contain a wellspring of creativity within us, and provided with the relational conditions of safety and trust, change is possible. Sally holds an appreciation for the intricacy and vastness of what it means to be human, and is impassioned by the potential for therapy to be an instrument for both healing and flourishing, a place where we may truly meet, accept, and become ourselves.
Sally’s background in the creative arts, her ongoing study and practice within eastern and western spiritual and contemplative wisdom traditions, as well as her many passions, ranging from philosophy and literature, to music, mythology, poetry and deep ecology, all richly inform her perspective of what it means to be human.
As an integrative therapist, Sally’s practice may draw upon a variety of evidence-based models, such as emotionally focussed therapy, psychodynamic theory, attachment theory, developmental psychology, sensorimotor and somatic-based trauma theories, existential therapy & parts work, to name a few. Through a systemic and trauma-informed framework, Sally intends to tailor these modalities to meet the needs of her clients.
She welcomes individuals from all walks of life and invites the full spectrum of life’s challenges, including (but not limited to), grief and loss, existential and spiritual concerns, depression and anxiety, relationship challenges, sexuality, life transitions, and identity/self-esteem challenges. Sally aims to uphold sensitivity to the context of one’s background, culture, gender, sexual orientation, and spiritual and/or religious affiliation. She welcomes clients to educate her on how to best understand and respect themselves and their worldviews.
Sally’s fee is $140 per 50-minute session for individuals.
