I have a special interest in the transitions and dilemmas that can occur at any point during a woman’s life. These might include marrying; pregnancy; changes in role; relationship difficulties; and the challenges presented at menopause and during the aging process. It is common to experience uncertainty, confusion, fear, and pressure at times of change or loss. Depression and anxiety may emerge as well as other, less common mental health issues. Times of change or loss can be difficult for everyone. I work with all genders, without discrimination. It is not necessary to have a mental health diagnosis to benefit from our sessions.
I am a Psychotherapist in advanced training, and I practice counselling and psychotherapy using Transactional Analysis (TA). I was a mental health nurse for 22 years and in the past worked in inpatient and community roles and, of late, as a mental health mentor, in higher education. TA offers an effective foundation for change and development
I understand how difficult it can be to talk about ourselves with a stranger. We need to feel accepted and supported to be able to do so, and we also need to feel we are being listened to while we are speaking. As an older person with considerable life experience, I bring maturity to my work and I am committed to providing a safe, non-judgmental space.
