I am currently offering online therapy. I have ten years of experience working in mental health and in supporting people to identify, better understand and work through any difficulties, challenges or points of ‘stuckness’ they may be experiencing in their lives. Therapy is often about exploring different perspectives and developing the skills and tools we need to help navigate life’s challenges to allow us to move forward. I am flexible and collaborative in my approach to therapy because, in my experience, therapy is most helpful to people when it is tailored to their specific needs and the hopes they may have for the process.
I specialise in individual therapy for anxiety, OCD, low mood, bereavement and difficulties within relationships or life transitions. My work is informed by a range of therapeutic approaches including Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, Systemic Therapy, Attachment Theory and Compassion Focused Therapy.
Talking about our difficulties can feel understandably challenging, or emotional, and so my intention is always to create a safe environment to help people to feel comfortable and able to speak openly. Please get in touch if you are interested in us working together, to discuss whether therapy may be helpful for you, or to arrange an initial appointment.
