Are you curious about starting therapy but feel like it's all too overwhelming? It took me years to gather myself and find support, and then I wished I did it sooner!

Relationships. Families. Individuals. Is it time for change? I love working with people & my connection & care is genuine, rich, varied and far-reaching.

Are you finding it hard to communicate, to resolve differences with your partner, your kids or other family members? I help individuals, couples and families to improve connection with each other, and learn ways of working through conflict. I provide a space for you to talk through past grief or trauma that may be getting in the way of creating the relationships you long to have. When you visit - this is your space; a nurturing, non-judgemental and confidential space. Counselling can reduce the distress, whatever the outcome. If you decide to separate, counselling can equip you to do this agreeably, and to parent cooperatively.

Feeling better is great, but I love to empower people with skills, strategies, and mechanisms to DO better. Strategic Psychotherapy is about effecting measurable change and progress. Talking about things and debriefing is great and comforting, however progress is what really counts.

Relationships can be a source of wellbeing and stability, but they can also have profound negative impact on our lives and mental health when things are not going well. If you want to learn how to build and maintain healthy relationships, if unfortunate events have damaged your relationship and you don't know how to heal and move forward, relationship counselling can give you the tools and support you need to reclaim a loving relationship with your partner and loved ones. We all have an innate need for connection, but don't know how to communicate for better connection. Counselling can help you to create the relationship you want.

Sessions are bookable online via my website. Do you struggle feeling like you are not a good person, partner, or parent? Are you going through a transitional phase of your life? Is performance anxiety getting in your way of competing? You're not alone! There are times we all feel like we are not enough or just can't get that balance in life but knowing that other people go through it doesn't help. You want action, you want a plan, and steps you can take to make that change. You want someone you can trust and talk to that is not involved or connected.
