Feeling overwhelmed and anxious? Waking in the middle of the night, or struggling to get to sleep? Endless racing thoughts? Feeling like you can't breathe? Doubting yourself? Finding it hard to feel motivated? It feels like uncertainty and anxiety are unavoidable at the moment. This impacts our mood and mental health. New, troubling feelings and experiences may have been triggered, you may have been struggling for a while, or old problems may have resurfaced. Whatever the case, therapy can provide a space to reflect, talk and make sense of the difficulties you are facing.
It can feel confusing getting to grips with what is going on in our minds and bodies. You do not have to do this alone, I can help. Together we can start making sense of what you are going through, putting the puzzle pieces together, working out how, when, why, and where these feelings are coming from. Understanding them is the first step.
I can't guarantee that all of your problems will be fixed, but many clients have shared that things have started to make more sense, once we have begun joining the dots together, leaving them feeling better about themselves. It can be daunting making that first step, just drop me an email and we can take it from there, to see if we will be a good fit.

During the first couple of sessions we will consider early life experiences to reflect on and start to make connections and links around how this has shaped the client. The identifying of early beliefs and patterns lays the groundwork for making sense of the impact of experiences faced in their lives today. This can be de-mystifying and helpful in guiding the work.
