I work with people who want to take time to understand themselves and build skills that will support them for a lifetime. In therapy sessions, we’ll work together to understand current problems and how they came about, and find useful tools you can use long-term to solve them. I specialize in anxiety/worry, low mood, self-esteem, relationship issues, OCD, emotional dysregulation, and recovering from trauma. I love helping clients discover how their emotions work and build confidence in themselves and their relationships, to create more fulfilling and balanced lives.

Life can throw challenges at us that prove too much for us to cope with on our own. I believe that we are not to blame for the difficulties we might face, and that they are the natural consequences of what we have experienced in life. If you are feeling stuck and unable to change things yourself, or repeating difficult and destructive patterns of behaviour, working with and talking with someone not involved in your life can help make profound change. Together we can explore what has helped to shape the way you are now, and how you want to be in the future, in a safe, confidential and non-judgemental space.

My philosophy stems from the belief that our experiences affect us in different ways, potentially impacting our psychological well-being. If left unaddressed, those experiences that impact us can sometimes lead to unhelpful coping patterns. Seeking therapy can help us navigate, process and understand our experiences better. We can then challenge our behavioural patterns that, if left unchecked, may go on to negatively impact important aspects of our lives. The client sits at the very centre of my approach to providing therapeutic care. I believe a positive environment can help initiate and drive positive change.

My approach to therapy is friendly, respectful & totally non-judgemental. Primarily I use an Integrative Therapy based on TTM ( Transtheoretical Model of Change) based (between others) on your goals, readiness to change and the fact that ‘no one type of therapy fits all’. Psychoeducation about your symptoms, coping strategies (CBT and Mindfulness') will improve your everyday life and if you feel ready to work on the 'the roots' of the current difficulties- EMDR, Counselling and Attachment Theory would be something to explore. I adjust therapy to my clients and not the other way around.

Imagine waking up feeling refreshed, with a clear mind and a sense of purpose. Picture yourself navigating relationships with calm and confidence, living a life where you're not just coping, but thriving. Does this seem out of reach? It does not have to be. You might currently be lying awake at night, your mind racing with anxious thoughts. Or feeling trapped in a relationship that brings more pain than joy. Or dreaming about writing that book or making an artwork but finding yourself procrastinating instead. Or struggling to find your place in the world, unsure of next steps. Longing for a life that feels truly fulfilling.

Self Esteem Counsellors

When should a person seek therapy for low self-esteem?

When self-esteem problems begin to disrupt the healthy daily functioning of an individual, it may be a good time to look into therapy. If a person finds that they are not engaging with friends for fear of being judged, not completing work assignments because they don’t think they’re capable, or not finding romantic love because they don’t feel they’re worthy of it, a therapist may be able to help.

What are the signs of low self-esteem?

Low self-esteem is a common issue that can affect a person's mental and emotional well-being. Some common signs of low self-esteem include negative self-talk, perfectionism, social anxiety, difficulty making decisions, an inability to set boundaries, people-pleasing, and others. A lack of belief in oneself or one’s abilities and a feeling of not being worthy or deserving underlie most of these characteristics.

What causes low self-esteem?

Feelings of low self-worth can begin in childhood or adulthood. Being raised by a highly critical parent or growing up feeling constant disapproval can stay with a person well into adulthood. Specific issues in adulthood may also be a cause of low self-esteem. An unhappy relationship, a dysfunctional work or school experience can impact a person’s feelings of self-worth.

How can therapy improve self-esteem?

Therapists can help identify negative thought patterns that keep the client stuck in a loop of destructive self-talk and develop coping skills to change the voice in their head. A therapist can help with goal-setting, so that clients are better able to stay on task and build confidence from successfully completing work they’re proud of. Coaching a client on how to better communicate can improve relationships. These skills can result in someone with low self-esteem feeling empowered and living with less fear.
