How we feel has a big effect on how we see ourselves, others and our world. These feelings can be frustrating, scary, hurtful or worrying. They can either have been there for most of our lives, gradually crept up on us or come as a result of our current situation. Often, when we are struggling, the most challenging part is not understanding what we are feeling or thinking, understanding why or knowing what to do about it.
It is my passion to help people see and understand what they are experiencing. I can help guide my clients through what they are experiencing in a gentle, safe and supportive manner. I work with people across the lifespan.
No matter what your experience, whether it be depression, anxiety, stress, relationship issues, personality issues, eating issues, grief, substance misuse or sleep, I can help. Together, we can understand how you are feeling and what may be the cause. With greater understanding, comes greater power and ability to change.
