Belinda offers a collaborative therapeutic space where people can develop greater awareness of their emotional experiences, supporting meaningful change that extends beyond symptom relief.
Her therapeutic approach is informed by experiential and psychodynamic frameworks, with a particular focus on Intensive Short Term Dynamic Psychotherapy (ISTDP), an emotion-focussed therapy that explores how coping patterns learnt earlier in life can contribute to emotional suffering. Working with both mind and body, ISTDP helps bring awareness to the emotions underlying these patterns, supporting greater emotional wellbeing.
Belinda is also a clinical supervisor, providing supervision to provisional psychologists and registrars in training.
