Whether you are struggling with stress, anxiety, depression, sadness, low self-esteem or past trauma, I can help you to start to find a way through - to see that you are more than the difficulties that you are going through - so that together, we can find the hope and healing that lay beyond.
The therapeutic context that we hold together is that you are more than your wounding or your past. We will work together to explore and heal past trauma or wounding but in service of the person that you wish to become and the life that you want to live so that you can congruently and authentically move forward with hope and purpose.

Some clients are struggling internally or their relationship with themself and/or others isn't what they would like; for many clients therapy is about learning to better manage their anxiety, stress or low mood.
At the heart of my practice is a belief that we can learn and grow through our life experiences to live a full and meaningful life. I practice from an integrative perspective drawing on psychodynamic, gestalt and constructive CBT. I aim to foster a safe and collaborative space for us, as I believe this is necessary to build trust and safety.

I offer therapy for many different problems, but I have a special interest in providing therapy for PTSD, complex Trauma, Anxiety and Depression.
These symptoms could be flashbacks, disturbed sleep, anxiety, panic attacks and low mood amongst other symptoms. EMDR also has robust evidence as a treatment for anxiety and panic attacks. The research has identified that anxiety is often caused by distressing or sometimes overwhelming experiences that have impacted and set in motion anxiety symptoms.

I have ten years experience of working from an attachment framework, specialising in early relational trauma, neglect and abuse. I aim to offer compassionate insight into how these difficulties continue to cause difficulties in the here and now. I am also an experienced EMDR therapist, a technique I use in relation to unresolved and traumatic memories.

Are you having to cope with the death of a loved one, and feeling the overwhelming experience of loss and grief? Have you or someone you love been diagnosed with a terminal illness? You are not alone. I provide a space where you can talk and be listened to as you explore your experience of bereavement or a terminal health diagnosis. I can give you the chance to express how you feel, and say the things you feel unable to say to friends and family, without feeling judged.
