Life's challenges can have a profound impact on your ability to cope. In times of struggle you may feel there is a part of you that isn't managing as well, and that you need additional support to elicit change. I strongly believe that it is what has happened to you that impacts you, rather than there being something wrong with you. You might find yourself stuck in unhelpful coping cycles that are no longer working, and are blocking your ability to heal. Managing life's challenges can be a lonely place to navigate. I offer an inclusive space for you to explore challenges and bring a sense of clarity and re-connection.
I will work with you in a compassionate way to explore the challenges you are facing and help you gain an understanding of your needs, your relationship with yourself and others, and reflect on change. I will offer tools and insights that will encourage you to explore new ways of coping and reconnect with the parts of you that are struggling.
Reaching out for support can be challenging and finding the right therapist can feel daunting. Please know that there is help here for you, even if I am not the one you reach out to. If you do reach out, I will work alongside you to support you in your healing journey, by helping you to reconnect with yourself and your external world.

I am an integrative psychotherapist, and use a number of different approaches to support individual needs. I work creatively to support self-expression, especially when talking seems hard. I offer somatic therapy, a body based approach that explores habitual patterns, how the body holds emotions and how it responds to life events.
