About

There are valid reasons behind your behaviour and emotions. We function best in an environment where we feel safe, loved and valued and can develop healthy relationships and a positive sense of self. We can then better explore life from a position of mental and emotional well-being. Perhaps this has not been your experience. Trauma and distress can affect your feelings and behaviour. The hurt may have left you feeling unsafe, devalued and negative towards yourself. You may struggle with poor coping options that have caused harm and suffering to yourself and those around you. You might be finding it difficult to navigate life.
Together we will explore underlying reasons behind your struggles and equip you with strategies to better manage your life. Using an attachment based eclectic variety of proven psychotherapeutic approaches, I will support you mentally and emotionally as you move towards a preferred view of yourself with life choices that are more in line with your values.
Anxiety, depression, addictions, compulsions, fears, anger, self-harm, narcissism, etc. may be symptoms of deeper issues. You've been hurt and responded with coping mechanisms that may have offered relief in the past, but are no longer working for you or others. Safely processing these issues and their impact can empower you to move toward freedom and peace.
