If you’re interested in the possibility of exploring therapy, or are curious about what it is like, I would be happy to call you (free) so that we can arrange an initial session (£55) with no commitment to continue if it doesn’t feel right. Simply click ‘Email me’ and request an initial call. There’s no need to go into detail before we meet.
In my view, conversion therapy is harmful and I work in a way that is affirming of LGBTQIA+ perspectives. I recognise that systemic racism affects mental health and the therapeutic relationship, and view my work in addressing these inequities as ongoing.
I strongly believe in the power of therapy to offer a more liberated way of living. With that in mind, rather than directing you with ‘strategies’, I’m interested in helping you to explore how your experience, and the way talk about it, affects how you live. I hold confidentiality, curiosity, and consistency as key values in my work.

It's not always easy to know what exactly what's wrong, in which case therapy can be a good place to explore what might be going on. However, sometimes we do have an idea of what is getting in our way. Therapy may help you to manage the burden of many problems and challenges.
