Choosing to embark on a therapeutic journey and searching for a therapist can feel daunting and overwhelming, yet at the same time it is incredibly brave of you, being here is the first step. Life is full of struggles, yet, how we manage those struggles can make all the difference to living a full-filling life. Therapy can be a healing process as well as a space to explore and understand yourself and your reactions to others. Exploring your past, your relationships and internal world will help deepen your self awareness and facilitate change. My approach to therapy is collaborative, which means I will be working alongside you on this personal journey, meeting you where you are at with empathy and compassion. It is a space in which we can think together, about feelings, understanding your emotions and past experiences, and how they might be affecting you in the present. The therapeutic relationship which we will build, through trust and confidentiality, will hope to facilitate change and enable a healing process of past emotional experiences.

As a BACP registered psychodynamic psychotherapist/counsellor, I have experience of working with adults experiencing bereavement, anxiety, depression, relationship difficulties, gender identity, addiction, eating disorders and long-term illness. I can work with you on either a long-term, open ended or on a short term basis.
