This is a highly respectful yet powerful way to explore issues such as self-confidence, anxiety or stress.
All of us need to find resilience at times of stress, or just to deal with day to day issues that may cause us anxiety and impact on the quality of our lives. Life events such as bereavement or change affect us in different ways with no simple, right solutions. I offer a way to share and resolve issues within a non-judgemental therapeutic relationship.

I work with a variety of issues including self-esteem, anxiety, depression, relationship problems, stress, work related issues, loss and grief, fertility and parenting issues and many more.
My practice is grounded in my commitment to create a safe, confidential, secure and non-judgemental environment where my clients can freely explore their thoughts, feelings, and behaviours at a pace that feels right for them. All too often modern living can leave us with very little space to think about our own needs. Our relationships and health can suffer as a result. Therapy can be helpful when emotional suffering becomes too much and at times of crisis when life can feel difficult or unmanageable. If you are looking for individual or couples therapy, reach out for a free initial discussion to see if you think I can help you.

We don't get wounded alone and we don't heal alone." Carl Jung. Are wounds from the past affecting how you are functioning in the present and your thoughts of the future? Our early experiences can create patterns of trust and distrust which affect how we are in our relationships with others and ourselves, as well as how we respond to trauma and stress throughout our lives on many different levels. However, whilst we may be shaped by the past I believe that we do not need to be trapped by it.
