I am an experienced psychotherapist specialising in an evidence-based therapy that accelerates psychological change. I help people to overcome whatever is preventing them from living fully and freely; addressing the issues they bring with compassion and integrity, in a collaborative, focused and emotionally therapeutic way. There are always reasons for suffering, and when we do not tackle this it tends to be repeated throughout our lives, often without understanding why. Therapy can be life-changing; bringing confidence, vitality, purpose, a realisation of potential, and more satisfying relationships.
Intensive Short-Term Dynamic Psychotherapy (ISTDP) is an experiential form of psychodynamic therapy that seeks to provide relief and resolution to your difficulties in a way that is time-effective and lasting. There is a strong focus on the internal obstacles that prevent change and healing. I will help you to regulate anxiety and manage feelings.
You may be new to therapy, in which case I know it can be hard to acknowledge there’s something wrong, to ask for help, or to believe change is possible. You may have had therapy before and feel like something is still not quite resolved or repaired. ISTDP therapy gets to the crux of the matter. Please do not hesitate to call, email or text.
