Therapy is an opportunity to do a deep dive into the hopes, fears, frustrations and uncertainties that stand in the way of your personal contentment.
Issues like anxiety, depression, low self-esteem, and self-destructive behaviour make it hard to manage your emotions at home or stress at work. Friendships and relationships suffer, Often there is an underlying trauma - a deep pain - that needs to be processed safely.
Life's inevitable changes - career, money, children, ageing, health - bring their own challenges. Whatever's happening in your world, my aim as a therapist is to help you move forward.
Our relationship will be key to the process. We'll use a mixture of techniques to help you identify and untie the knots that are holding you back. Together, we will strive toward a new understanding of your authentic self and its needs.
I welcome clients of all kinds but I have particular experience with men (of all ages) and young people.
I will meet you with compassion and without judgment. I will always see you as a whole person - not a syndrome. We will work collaboratively, moving gently towards acceptance, healing and greater happiness.
I won't solve your problems for you, but will empower you to do so for yourself. If you want to embrace a new and more hopeful future, let's talk.
