About Me
Life often presents us with unexpected challenges, leaving us with a sense of distress and overwhelm. I understand that opening up about your thoughts and feelings can be daunting. That is why I provide a safe, confidential, compassionate and non-judgemental space where you can freely express yourself. Whether you're experiencing depression, anxiety, the complexities of relationships, the effects of past trauma, the weight of grief, or simply seeking to develop a deeper self-understanding and purpose, my approach is tailored to your unique needs.
I place particular emphasis on the therapeutic relationship – meaning that I believe that a genuine, empathetic connection is the foundation for meaningful progress in therapy. The aim is to support you in fostering a deeper self-understanding and empowering you to make choices that more closely align with your core values and beliefs.
My Approach
Specialities: Anxiety, Depression, Relationship Issues, Trauma and Self Esteem.
I believe in a pluralistic approach to psychotherapy, and will work collaboratively with you to understand your unique needs and tailor our work to align with your goals for therapy. I draw on a range of modalities, considering Person Centred, Humanistic Approaches; Psychodynamic Theories; Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT); and Existential Therapy.
I currently offer telephone, online or in-person sessions. Please contact me for an initial chat or to make an appointment using the form below.
