You may feel anxious, depressed, experience recurrent unhelpful relationship patterns, have a pervasive sense of discontent or just feel stuck. I can help you understand the history of your problems and learn healthier ways to relate to yourself and others. Whether you are dealing with unresolved early trauma, need help setting better boundaries in relationships, feel you don't quite belong, are underachieving, or cannot enjoy your successes, I can help you find solutions to your immediate issues, while also exploring how your previous life experiences affect your responses, relationships and self-perception.

It's OK to feel daunted by the prospect of counselling; sessions with me will be collaborative and will go at your own pace. There will be no judgment, you won't have to talk about anything that feels too painful until you are ready and I will not tell you what to do. Sometimes people think they have to be “crazy” or have mental health issues, or have experienced a severe trauma to see a therapist. My response is, if it’s important to you, then it’s worth talking about with someone. It doesn’t matter how small you think the issue is, talking about it can help.
