I enjoy working with individuals of any age who may find it difficult to seek help and who are concerned that nobody will understand their struggles. I can help to alleviate feelings of shame and self-criticism, providing gentle support to help clients develop greater strength to recover from and overcome obstacles that inhibit the ability to thrive and find contentment.
I integrate multiple theoretical perspectives to best meet individual needs and preferences. I have particular interest in Compassion Focussed Therapy, a trauma sensitive approach based on evolutionary neuroscience, social psychology, and Buddhist psychology. It is ideal for addressing longstanding difficulties associated with shame and self criticism.
Seeking help can be daunting, particularly if you’ve often felt misunderstood. I aim to provide a space where you can be heard with care and respect as we explore your current concerns and hopes for the future, and while we work towards meaningful change. If this seems like something you might find valuable, I would be pleased to hear from you.
