It may be that you want to discuss a current life event, or something that has been troubling you for some time. Being listened to with empathy and non-judgement can help you to deal with issues that are causing distress or unhappiness. The cause can be known or they maybe unknown. Relationships can get stuck in repetitive patterns. Issues that therapy can help with and that are often hard to overcome include: low self esteem, relationship issues , depression, childhood trauma, sexual issues, anxiety and stress . I also work with bereavement, loss, addiction and substance misuse , health related issues.

I offer a confidential non- judgemental space where you can talk about what is concerning you. You may come because you have issues related to anxiety, stress, sadness, low self esteem or anger. You may have deep feelings of disappointment with yourself, and others, or feelings of pointlessness, conflict within relationships. You may be struggling with a personal crisis or life event and would like to talk through with someone who is outside your friendship or family group. I listen to what is concerning you and help you reflect and explore these issues from various angles so that you find a clearer way forward.

Do you suffer from counterproductive, intrusive thoughts? Are you critical of yourself, ignoring your achievements and strengths? Do you struggle with self-confidence and believing in yourself? Perhaps, you strive to make changes to your life, but no matter how hard you strive, you find that the same thinking patterns and responses occur to you repeatedly. You may find yourself stuck, or returning to lacklustre, even toxic relationships. You may find that you struggle with your self-image, whether physical, financial, interpersonal, spiritual or social.

I offer a safe, non-judging and confidential therapeutic space where thoughts and feelings can be shared and explored. The therapeutic journey I believe can serve as an opportunity to uncover one’s inner resources and resilience, as well as an opportunity to discover new and more flexible ways of relating to oneself, others and life. My psychotherapy training is in a mindfulness based approach called Core Process Psychotherapy (CPP). This particular approach integrates concepts of mindfulness and awareness with modern psychological perspectives and theories.

There are many reasons you might be looking for therapy or counselling: you might be feeling low, anxious or have a particular life problem you are finding overwhelming - grief, heartbreak, or trauma. Perhaps you feel ready to break out of an old pattern or make a change, or build your self esteem, learning to love who you already are, with all your imperfections, vulnerabilities, and beauty. But if you are seeking therapy, you are probably suffering - perhaps I can listen, and share that burden with you. I wonder if, together, we could put the pieces of your story together and find our way through the underworld, back to your life.

Alongside my core training in Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, my specialisms lie within Compassion-Focused Therapy for Low Self Esteem.
Life can be tough sometimes and we can easily find ourselves stuck in cycles of unhelpful thinking or behaving. My aim is to help you to become unstuck and access a healthier, happier version of yourself. You may not know exactly how or why things aren't working, so an initial assessment can help us to figure this out together. I believe that we all possess the knowledge and resources to address our problems - I see my role as helping you to unlock this knowledge, access these skills, and acquire some additional tools along the way.

Anxiety and worry take ​joy from life, leaving you demotivated and depressed. Low self-esteem and confidence make you seem inadequate and insecure, feeling like you don't belong. The demands of a health condition have made life seem worthless and the idea of change impossible. Have you found yourself caught in these cycles of negative thinking? Do you wish you could feel more confident? As an HCPC registered Clinical Psychologist, I’ve helped many people suffering with low confidence, self-esteem, social anxiety and difficulties with health conditions understand and overcome their problems, build strength and get life back on track.
