Many of my clients are exhausted from a life in which everyone else's needs have always been made more important than their own. From the earliest age, they weren't supported to have boundaries, and now find themselves struggling with self-esteem, low mood,
anxiety
, problems with keeping supportive friendships and partnerships alive, struggling to assert themselves at work or cope with professional demands, and feeling stuck in relationship dynamics in which they can't be their true self. They want to put their painful past behind them, and to have their needs recognised and allowed space going forward.

For adults seeking 1-1 support from an experienced and caring psychologist. Together we can work on issues such as adjusting to life changes, symptoms of
anxiety
and depression or simply getting your mojo back. I created Anahata Psychology and Consulting Practice to facilitate change, with Heart. I’m a big fan of telehealth. I’ve spent time teaching online in universities, so when COVID came, the move to online psychotherapy was easy for me. Telehealth suits people who don’t necessarily have the time to come into an office or prefer the privacy of their own home. Instead of paper handouts, I give you links.
