Are you constantly experiencing the breakdown of relationships leaving you feeling distressed, bewildered, let down and perhaps even angry with yourself for repeating these patterns? It can be devastating to keep finding ourselves stuck in this way. Whether in intimate relationships, family dynamics, friendships or work situations, I can help you explore these issues, in the hope of understanding their origins and gradually healing yourself, thus developing the possibility of healthier relationships with others. Maybe you have experienced some of the above and are also in the Creative/Performing Arts Community or Film/ Media.
I have significant experience of working with clients who have experienced abusive childhoods, leading to feelings of worthlessness and difficulty maintaining healthy relationships and boundaries in adulthood. Often the Trauma experienced can lead to Addiction issues, initially as a way of self-soothing, though tragically often ultimately as a self-sabotage.
I can offer you the opportunity to feel really heard and understood. I will respect your individuality, whilst drawing on my significant experience, to help you develop greater awareness of yourself and others, leading to healthier life choices. I might challenge your reality where appropriate, whilst offering you much compassion and support along the way.
