Do you feel that you’re constantly reinventing yourself in order to feel accepted? Do you put others’ needs and wants before your own? Maybe you’re going through a major transition in your life, which is causing you to question who you are or where you fit in. Whether the transition is expected, chosen or imposed, it can be difficult to adjust whilst enduring intense feelings of fear and uncertainty. If this sounds familiar and you would like to start making positive changes then give me a call or email me. I will help you to heal the disconnection and build resilience, so you can develop strength from the challenges you’re facing.

I am an integrative therapist, meaning I draw on multiple approaches and theories in my practice, but my way of working has been particularly shaped by relational psychotherapy and attachment theory. This means I believe that the relationships we experience in our early lives affect our later ways of relating to both ourselves and others. I believe that therapy is a fundamentally relational endeavour - not that people are broken and therefore need to be “fixed” - but rather that through working together we can come to new ways of relating, understanding and being.

Seeking help through therapy can feel like a daunting task, but it can also be the first big step to healing from within. Perhaps you're feeling stressed, having trouble sleeping or just generally out of sorts. This may even be affecting your relationships, work and health. I offer you a warm empathic space and a chance to talk about whatever is troubling you in a confidential supportive way. Simply put, it a chance for you to heal. I work with an integrative psychodynamic model, bringing in elements of CBT and minfulness.

Perhaps a recent event has brought up complicated feelings, or you live with anxiety, or relationships have been difficult for as long as you can remember. Sometimes it might feel that despite doing everything 'right', you find yourself in familiar patterns. Therapy should feel like a safe space to which you can bring your whole self. My work helps clients understand how their experiences (both past and present) and any unconscious forces might be impacting their relationships and ways of coping with life. Psychodynamic therapy promotes greater self-awareness and a space for you to take each session in the direction you need to.

I am warm and listen with attention and care. I am also not afraid to challenge negative beliefs and behaviours if they are unhelpful. With me, you will have a true experience of healing and understanding in a deep and authentic relationship. Through my own counselling following a loss, I learnt how valuable therapy can be in helping people to heal and to live a fuller and happier life. It opened my eyes to a new way of seeing things and I enjoy enabling this liberating possibility for others in my work.
