Life can be stressful and full of uncertainty, so as a Counselling Psychologist I will use a variety of theories from my years of training and beyond to treat you as a whole person who is more than just their struggles, insecurities and pain. Therapy can help you deeply explore your past or give you tools to cope better in the present. It can allow someone else to understand you so that eventually you can understand yourself. I am a relatable and down to earth person and my aim is to make you feel safe, listened to, valued and understood so that you can build self-awareness, self-compassion and self-acceptance.

My main aim as a therapist is to help you understand and accept yourself and to feel connected to your feelings and authentic desires for life. We can do this in a number of ways, for example: processing difficult experiences from the past; looking at patterns in your life and where they come from; exploring what is blocking you from doing what you want. How we work together will depend entirely on what feels right and helpful to you; and what you want to get out of therapy. The most important thing is that we build a safe and trusting relationship and then we can take it from there.
