If you need to talk with someone who isn’t a friend or family, won’t judge you, can be objective, and won’t push you to talk or try things you’re not ready for? Then you’ve come to the right place! I don’t do therapy to you, but with you! I walk along side you at your pace offering therapeutic support along the way, while breaking down old habits and thoughts that maybe holding you back. I’m a university qualified and experienced counsellor who can support you to make positive changes towards the life you want and the person you want to be.

My overall purpose of counselling and psychotherapy is to help you untangle your mind and reconnect the dots so that you can get back in touch with your essence and take charge of your life. The purpose of PsychoEnergetic therapy is to connect you back with who you truly are rather than who you were conditioned to be – to reconnect you to your inner wisdom and guidance, your innermost dreams and your fundamental purpose. It enables you to connect to the existential reality of life so that you can gain a level of acceptance of anything that can’t be changed. This will help you to find the courage to change those things you can.

Are you struggling with self-image, work-life balance, or identity confusion? Are you navigating a life transition such as becoming a parent, feeling lost or confused about who you are, and seeking to regain your life purpose? You might have lost sight of your own goals, desires, likes and dislikes. This could present as snapping at your loved ones, conflict in your relationships, overwhelmed by emotions, burn out or completely shutting the world out, which could look like withdrawal, or avoidant behaviours. Counselling can help support you to explore the question, Who Am I?

Welcome to Calm Connections Counselling. Sometimes we face struggles, challenges and obstacles in life where we disconnect and we need help to re-gain connection to our authentic self. You may be grieving a loss, facing difficulties within your family, in your parenting or within relationships. You may have experienced trauma or in a life transition, or perhaps you are feeling overwhelmed, anxious and feel like you cannot cope. Working with you, I draw on an integrated approach which encompass body, mind, emotion and spirit while drawing on modalities such as Acceptance Commitment theory, Emotions Focussed and Somatic therapy.

My approach is client centred and holistic with the client’s emotional, mental, and physical wellbeing the focus of my sessions. I believe in a mind-body connection and understand the power in releasing emotion that we often store in our bodies when it doesn’t feel safe to express. This can be the result of trauma or life experience that prevents us from living with a sense of stability or peace and often without the ability of knowing what to do with these big emotions. Children especially struggle with this, and Art therapy provides them with the opportunity to express these feelings without the pressure of using words.

People often come to Freedom Clinical Psychology because they are struggling and feel stuck in their lives. They might feel disconnected from others socially, like they are lacking something meaningful in their life, unfulfilled in work or struggling with intimacy in their romantic relationships. Under the surface there are often powerful patterns of how we think, feel and react to situations that were formed when we were children or adolescents and contribute to keeping us stuck now.
