I will work alongside you to help further your understanding of why you are feeling the way you do or how what you have experienced has impacted you.

Hello, I’m Heidi. Welcome to my profile. To find you here most likely means you're looking for someone to help you overcome the mental health issues you're facing. Maybe you're struggling with depression and are finding it hard to motivate yourself to do much of anything. Or perhaps anxiety is controlling your life and stopping you from taking the opportunities you would like to give yourself. You might have experienced trauma and are bogged down by the past. Whether your problem is excessive worry, intrusive thoughts, panic attacks or low self-esteem, I am confident I can help you achieve a better quality of life.

For the past 15 years I have offered clients a therapeutic approach that has helped them develop an inner compass; a resource with which to find themselves when they were lost, a means of navigating rough waters and an anchor in the storm. It is an approach that enables the letting go of unhelpful learning and habits such as self-criticism, guilt, fear and shame; promoting the acceptance of self and other.

Are you feeling stuck, facing a challenging period, struggling to cope or just wanting to understand yourself better? Are you feeling lost, powerless and helpless? You might have experienced a life changing event such as bereavement or divorce and be struggling with knowing how to cope with the future. Are you experiencing stress at work, even feelings of panic? I can help you explore these issues and others in a safe, quiet and relaxing environment. You are an expert on you. I look forward to hearing from you if you’d like to work with me.
