Experiential Therapy has been a passion of mine for many years. I have fueled this passion with my creativity, professional readings, university & online courses, mentorship and playful expression. I am trained in Art Therapy, Mindfulness, Mindfulness Based Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (MBCBT), Psychodrama, Sand Tray Therapy, Yoga for the Subtle Body, Music in Psychotherapy and Photovoice. I blend Experiential Therapy with several theoretical approaches which include Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), CBT, Strength Based Therapy, Solution Focused Therapy and Narrative Therapy through groups and individual sessions.
Experiential Therapy Explained
“Since experiential therapy is not necessarily one specific form of treatment, you may find yourself focusing on different types of “hands-on” interventions and experiences in addition to talk therapy. By participating in these interventions with guidance from a therapist, you can gain deeper access to your own emotional processing, creativity, inner thoughts, and interactions with others. At the same time, you learn to reflect on your experiences to more comfortably make your own choices and decisions as you move through life and free yourself to become you. Your therapist will focus on your awareness and perceptions of what you are experiencing through these interventions, and help you explore the meaning of your emotions.” https://www.psychologytoday.com/ca/therapy-types/experiential-therapy
