I am an Addictions Specialist Therapist specialising in working with Executives. I work with executives wishing to reduce or cease their use of addictive substances and/ or behaviours. I recognise the more traditional substance abuse disorders (all drugs and alcohol). I also recognise the full spectrum of problem behaviours known as "process addictions". These include but are not limited to sex, gaming, exercise, gambling, self harm and overeating. People usually approach me because they are experiencing unmanageable associated consequences to their using such as overwhelming anxiety, depression, and relationship breakdown etc..
I promote healing from within an attachment framework. We will work for stability in the short term and a deeper sense of fulfilment in the long term. Fulfilment in relationship with self, others and life. I offer comprehensive 10 week coaching courses that treat addictions from your home or office.
I will not treat you like a diagnosis. Feedback from clients indicates they value my personal experience of struggle and how this translates into them feeling understood and held. I understand the struggle first hand. You can rest assured there is no judgement coming from me. You are already doing enough of this yourself.
