As a doctor of psychoanalytic psychotherapy, I work with a wide range of life issues, with clients at every stage of life, from pregnancy to adulthood: babies, children & adolescents, adults, couples, families and elderly clients.
Life might feel quite unbearable right now. Work and family life may have spiralled out of control. You might be struggling to bond with your new baby, or your young child or teenager is in emotional pain. You may have lost a loved one due to a relationship breaking down or a bereavement. Perhaps your hopes and dreams have been shattered and you are wondering if there is a way out of this dark place. All of the above life events can cause us to feel many confusing emotions such as anxiety, depression or anger. You being here right now is an important step towards changing your situation for the better.

I work with adults facing anxiety, depression, complex trauma, perinatal and birth-related difficulties, loss and bereavement, relationship struggles, life transitions, and questions of identity and culture.
My approach is integrative, so no two people are worked with the same way — we shape things around what feels most supportive for you. Depending on your needs, I may draw on person-centred therapy, psychodynamic insight, CBT, mindfulness, and creative methods. I'm also neuro-affirmative trained and welcome neurodivergent clients and their families.

I'm Julie, I offer individual and couples counselling and support for life changes and transitions big and small, particularly family life and parenting.

Or has a traumatic experience left you feeling on-edge, constantly reliving the experiencing and struggling to see a way forward? Or perhaps becoming parents, or just thinking about it, has contributed to a lack of intimacy, communication and trust in your key relationships?

There are times when what once made sense no longer does — when loss, change, or exhaustion leave you holding more than you can carry. You might be grieving someone, something, or even the version of yourself who kept going. You may be realising how much you’ve adapted to fit in, or how tired you are of coping alone. Therapy can be a space to exhale — where nothing has to be held together and you can begin to feel met, not managed.

When it comes to therapy, the process can be life changing or sometimes just very necessary. When clients need to confront issues or make changes, this can be daunting, overwhelming or even confusing. My role as a therapist is not to judge you or tell you what to do; instead I aim to help you see your situation more clearly and guide you towards your own innate wisdom. The clients I work with are ready to embark on this inner journey of transformation gaining better self-awareness, improved self-acceptance and greater authenticity.

My ideal clients invest with their whole self, heart and mind, not just financially. They are ready to listen to what their body has been telling them. They want to shift, even before they have words for it. They notice the same patterns in every relationship and stop blaming everyone else. Something in them knows they are destined for more, and my words tend to find them at the right time. They are not uptight. They like to laugh. And they want work that is holistic, spiritual, grounded in clinical and life experience. I help you come home to the safety of your mind and body, so you can finally stop surviving and start living.

Pregnancy, Prenatal, Postpartum Counsellors
What are the most effective ways to address pregnancy, prenatal, and postpartum concerns?
The most effective way to address pregnancy, prenatal, and postpartum concerns is by finding a therapist who has prior experience helping other patients overcome the challenge being faced. For example, a marriage and family therapist may have experience helping couples adjust to their new relationship dynamic. An anxiety specialist may have experience helping with phobias or illness anxiety related to the child’s health. A depression specialist may have experience treating postpartum depression.
When should I seek treatment for prenatal or postpartum concerns?
Pregnancy and the postpartum period involve intense physical and mental changes; a degree of upset and instability is normal. However, if these changes impair daily functioning, it may be time to seek help. This distinction is pertinent for postpartum depression: A period of teariness, irritability, and distress is difficult but normal in the one to two weeks after childbirth (sometimes called the “baby blues.”) But if feelings of sadness and hopelessness persist beyond that period, the person should seek treatment.
How do I manage worries during pregnancy or the postnatal period?
A therapist can help patients develop the tools they need to manage anxieties during or after pregnancy. Cognitive behavioural therapy can help people identify and reframe harmful patterns of thought, and change their behaviours. Other techniques and skills can allow people to develop acceptance, psychological flexibility, self-compassion, communication skills, and more.
