At times of feeling low or anxious we often think, “what’s the point of trying it won’t make any difference”, leading to feelings of depression, sadness, fear and tearfulness. This then leads to changes in our behaviour such as withdrawing from others or staying in bed as we mull things over in our heads which makes us feel worse. Additionally, past trauma issues can often leave us feeling overwhelmed or with experiences of flashbacks and nightmares. Relationship issues left unresolved often leave us with a sense of helplessness and relationship breakdown leave us feel confused. Does this sound familiar to you?

Do you feel overwhelmed and experiencing emotions that you are struggling to process?

Many of my clients are neurodivergent, whether already diagnosed or looking into the possibilities. I will support you to look at what difficulties you have now which could use a new direction. We will explore what you would like to change, and look at what solutions work for you and who you are. Sometimes this will include looking back to discover repeated behaviours, areas where you have been hurt many times, and begin to look at what you can do differently to find a happier and healthier way to live your life. People and relationships often come into the work, and can show further areas where you could be happier.

I'm the founder and clinical lead of The Eating Disorder Recovery Clinic. The Clinic is a team of the very best eating disorder specialists from the South West working together to help our clients recover from anorexia, bulimia and binge eating disorder. Our team can work with individuals from the age of 13, as well as their loved one. We believe that eating disorders are primarily coping mechanisms, and so the underlying stuff needs to be resolved if recovery is to take place.

As a qualified integrative therapist, respect is at the centre of my beliefs. I fervently believe that an individual, no matter who you are, should have the arena in which to be heard, without prejudice, without judgement, and with compassion. Our inclusive space will be one of confidentiality, trust and a pace that you feel able to go at, and my hope is that we will work to resolve, or at least identify, some, if not all, of the reasons that you've decided to reach out.

If you are looking for a Psychologist who can both support your difficult emotional experiences whilst also nudging you towards recovery and solutions, we should perhaps chat. I’m both a Clinical Psychologist and specialist coach, being able to sit with you as a therapist, coach or a blend of both. My clients most often say, “this is challenging, but it works” when asked to review the support they received. I usually fit well with people who are frustrated at their progress, perhaps ashamed / embarrassed and wanting change.

Psychological support is about investing in you. Life can be chaotic, intense, confusing, and we can be left feeling disconnected from ourselves, our lives, and the people around us. Sometimes we just need some space to stop and think. Psychological support is also about developing a deeper understanding of yourself - who you are, what you need, what matters to you. For others, it's about building on existing skills - how to get more out of relationships, improving communication, being more assertive, boosting your sleep and performance, learning to be the best version of yourself.
