Clinical Psychologists are unique to other type of therapists as we are trained to a high standard in more than one therapeutic approach. This allows me to provide you with an individualised, specialist care plan, using one or more therapeutic approach to suit your needs. As a clinical psychologist I am trained in the use of psychological formulation; together we will consider your past experiences, current difficulties and your strengths in order to provide a thorough understanding of what has lead you to seek support.

I am an emotions therapist. I love to talk with people about their feelings, purpose, meaning and pretty much anything that life offers, good and bad. Many years of experience in helping people unlock the truth about themselves, lives, hopes and dreams have taught me we never stop needing to connect to ourselves and others. I have learned that we need to talk about our pain to heal. And I know the importance of telling our story, feeling understood, and healing old wounds. The purpose of my work is to support emotional well-being, nurture hope, compassion and healing.

I have a special interest of helping adults who have unhelpful coping strategies that keep them stuck, such as eating too much or too little; drinking too much; withdrawing into themselves; &/or working harder to activate perfectionist & self-destructive behaviours. Perhaps you're questioning who you are as you struggle with such feelings & question if you'll ever feel better? Perhaps you struggle to find the right words to talk about how you're feeling & shut down if others ask how you are? You don't know where else to turn, struggle on & feel afraid of what may happen if you're not okay. You are exhausted & want things to change.

Many of us have the feeling that something is wrong but are not sure what it is or we know our life could be better. This can be because we are out of touch with our true self. One reason for this is that we learn to defend ourselves from the world at a very young age. Those defences become ingrained and we think they are part of our personality. We may often dismiss our defences as ‘that’s just me.’ For some people who have had trauma, those defences can become debilitating in the form of an addiction or a panic disorder. Working through our issues can help our defences to 'stand down' as we become more comfortable in our own skin.

Sexual difficulties that I most often encounter in my work are; Problems with Desire, which can be too high, too low or discrepant from your partner’s. Difficulties with Arousal. Such as difficulty in becoming physically aroused or difficulty in maintaining arousal. Absence of Orgasm or difficulty in postponing orgasm and Genital Pain or Spasm. Those can also affect your Intimate Relationship or be caused by it. Besides the main aim of Resolving Sexual Difficulties, therapy would often provide: Unlearning Sexual Myths, Learning to Relate to Your Own Mind and Body, Deepening Intimacy / Communication and Lifestyle Improvements.

There can be times in life, where we may need help to weather emotional difficulties we encounter, to gain clarity and understanding. This may be through loss (bereavement or loss of a relationship, job or life changes), stress (anxiety, depression) and relationship problems (including how we feel about ourselves). There can be many reasons why you may be seeking help and it's a brave step to acknowledge and address this, by taking the first step in looking for support.

Things that seem overwhelming and confusing can start to make sense through counselling. Together we can work towards achieving your goals in counselling, whether that involves finding peace to accept your present situation, or to move forward by taking action.

It can be a great relief to be able to share your worries and stress with someone. We all struggle at times and as much as we would like to talk to our friends or family we feel unable to let them in. Sometimes we feel stuck, alone and not able to find the solution to the problem that's making us unhappy. Being able to talk openly with someone who can support you, without judgement, as you explore your feelings and the circumstances that are causing you stress can make a big difference. You will start to feel in control, see things more clearly and feel more confident to make the changes you want to in your life.

I enjoy working with young people and adults alike. I have been told by past clients that I am open, honest and friendly, which are qualities that all clients have valued. I like to problem solve and am a very logical and practical person. Having lived in several different countries, I have developed a good understanding of a range of issues for people from different cultures and backgrounds. I like to ask questions and truly get to know someone and never assume to know better. My clients are always the experts in their lives and I see myself as a guide to help them navigate to a calmer place.

Let me start by saying I’ve been to see a psychologist; why mention this? Two reasons: firstly, people often ask me this, so I’ll be up front about it. Secondly – maybe why people ask – having been “on the other side of the room”, I have the experience of how hard opening up can be, and how difficult it is to think about “life”. This experience has meant that back on the psych side of the room, I take a genuinely careful and non-judgmental approach to sessions. I begin by focusing on helping people feel comfortable; paradoxically perhaps, this means we are able to get to work on things quite quickly, but importantly, never rushing.

Having someone to talk to at various points in our life can be very helpful in dealing with a range of issues. It can be beneficial to speak with some who is non-judgemental, genuine and can offer unconditional positive regard within a professional setting. The counselling relationship is not like any other you may have experienced and requires the client to take a leap of faith and trust someone they have not met before.

We all go through life experiencing good and bad moments, but sometimes the bad experiences can become too overwhelming to manage them on our own. Sometimes they may be a result of sudden changes which life throws at us unexpectedly leaving us vulnerable and lost in a new reality and sometimes it may be that we want to change something in our lives, but don’t really know how, which leaves us feeling stuck and helpless. If this sounds familiar to how you feel why not try counselling? Talking to someone you can trust who can listen without any judgement can be very helpful especially in these challenging times.
