As an integrative psychotherapist I am here to go on a journey of self-discovery with you with any difficulties that may arise on the journey. Whether you’re seeking a simple improvement or healing from deep wounds, within yourself and/or with others, I can help. I understand that at times your family/friends may be part of the problem, this is where I come into your situation with fresh eyes, an open heart, and much experience and strength to help you regain your sense of who you are.

Stress, anxiety, depression is no longer such a taboo subject, yet we often tell ourselves, I can cope with this myself or maybe nobody will want to listen because nobody has time, or how about I’m too ashamed and I blame myself so I will cope with this by myself...... Well I am here to offer you the space to speak the unspoken and explore worrying thoughts together. The problem might be a recent incident that has left you feeling unsettled or a long standing concern deep rooted in unresolved trauma that has affected you e.g. sleepless nights, social anxiety, fear, relationship issue, performance at work, mood, self worth.

Sometimes life can feel like a struggle, a struggle that you feel alone with. It doesn't matter how many people are around you or not, the feeling remains the same, isolation and a lack of support. Interactions with others may not feel authentic, they may bring up feelings of anxiety, a lack of safety or even feelings of deficiency or self-blaim. And the most confusing part is that your experience of yourself alone, or with others, makes little sense.

I'm an experienced psychotherapeutic counsellor. Whatever is going on in your life, I offer a safe space for you to explore your difficulties in depth and work towards lasting change. You may be struggling with anxiety, depression, self esteem or family issues, or have something you want to make sense of. Perhaps you've tried counselling before and now want to explore your issues more deeply. I will listen and work collaboratively with you in a psychodynamic way to help you reach a better understanding of yourself and what may be getting in the way of you making changes - so that you can live a fuller life on your own terms.

I have found that the journey of psychotherapy is a challenging but very rewarding journey of self-exploration, self-awareness and self-acceptance.

Hi, my name is Vicky, I think it is fair to say that we are all trying to adjust to circumstances that we could never imagine happening to us. And the impact this can have can be overwhelming. People do cope well when going through difficult times. However, If you are struggling it is important that you find a way to talk about your struggles and I am prepared to look at my pricing to meet your needs. I understand that so many people are in financial difficulties right now, so please get in touch if you would like to talk to me. I can offer online face to face counselling using Zoom.

You feel like you can’t cope, you’re fed up, you’ve had enough. Your life isn’t what you want it to be. Living has become hard and there’s no joy in your world. It’s like everyone else except you is happy. You’re haunted by your past. You think you’ll never be happy again. You feel alone like no one else understands how hard your life is at the moment. On the outside you look fine but inside you feel like you’re dying. Everything you do feels like an act to look like you’re okay. You don’t know how to change things or what to do about it anymore.
