Guiding Change, Acceptance and Compromise
EMDR
Bozena's approach to working with trauma is influenced by developments in neuroscience and the methodology of EMDR therapy. She is able to offer compassionate and ethical EMDR therapy addressing a wide range of issues including anxiety, depression, low self-esteem, stress, phobias, OCD (obsessive compulsive disorder), including eating disorders, GAD (general anxiety disorder) addictions, bereavement and loss. The ultimate goal with EMDR is to help clients heal from traumatic events, grow and thrive. She uses EMDR therapy alongside other modalities depending on a client’s specific needs.
Couples Counselling / Relationship Therapy
Bozena is trained and experienced in the field of relationships and believes that the approach to couples counselling is unique to every couple. Some of the concerns she can assist with are effective communication, understanding the default dynamic of your relationship, cooperative parenting styles, in-laws, nurturing closeness, connection, and friendship.
She also has special interest and experience in working through couples’ interrelationship problems and challenges, families struggling in day – to day life, unresolved childhood issues and IVF counselling/fertility issues (based on personal experience).
Each session with Bozena is designed on an individual basis around your therapeutic needs to achieve your optimal level of recovery.
