If you are struggling with your relationships, feeling depressed, anxious or sad, or have difficult feelings about yourself and are finding it hard to enjoy life, I would like to help. Perhaps you keep repeating a pattern of behaviour that is difficult for you, or perhaps you just want to grow, change and develop. Experiencing difficulty is such a normal part of life. Counselling and psychotherapy can help you to process past experiences and gain a greater understanding of behaviours, thoughts and feelings in the present.

As an integrative therapist I work intuitively and collaboratively, drawing on a range of therapeutic interventions best suited to you. These include traditional talking therapies such as psychodynamic and person centred approaches but also mindfulness and psycho-education. I also work somatically and creatively using sand tray or drawing.
I offer a safe, non-judgemental and confidential space to help you fully explore what is troubling you. I believe that we all have the ability with the support of the therapeutic relationship, to access our own healing power and find our way back to who we truly are, so we can feel more empowered, resourced and enabled to fulfil our true potential.
