People come to therapy for a range of reasons. There might be recurrent problems in relationships or work, there might be disturbing feelings within, or behaviours that are defeating or destructive. Many people find that their usual ways of coping don’t seem to work for them anymore. Whatever the issue, undertaking psychotherapy is an opportunity for you to really understand the underlying drivers of the problem, in the context of your unique life history, and to find a way to transform your suffering. New possibilities for living with greater freedom and creativity might then appear.
I am an experienced clinician who has worked in tertiary hospital and trauma treatment settings. I have trained in a number of modalities, including psychoanalytic and trauma treatment approaches, and primarily work with people psychoanalytically. This is not presciptive or programmatic, but privileges the singularity of one's suffering and its resolution.
These ways of working can be especially suited to people who have enduring problems of living, being, and relating. You may have tried other, short-term therapies but found the problems remained, or you may have a preference for more exploratory and deeper work. We will work together to decide what might suit you best.
