Counselling and Psychotherapeutic Approach
Ida works in a somatic, body-focused way, helping clients connect with and process emotions through the body and the nervous system. She is currently completing training in Embodied Processing, a somatic approach that supports clients in sensing, feeling, and releasing emotions held in the body.
Ida's work is integrative and holistic, meaning that she uses a variety of approaches and techniques such as body work, mindfulness, IFS and inner child work. Ida aims to help clients look into their emotions and fully experience them in order to discover the aspects of themselves, of which they were previously unaware. She then helps her clients to find self-compassion and to integrate the fragmented parts of themselves in order to bring about healing.
For Ida, one of the most significant parts of therapy lies in the therapeutic relationship and she believes the magic starts happening when we begin to feel security and trust in the relationship with our therapist.
As a yoga teacher, Ida naturally incorporates breath and body awareness, helping clients become more grounded, process emotions effectively and live happier and more fulfilled lives.
