Do you ever wonder why, despite everything going well in your life (e.g. you're in a good relationship, a successful job), something feels off?
I specialise in helping people with anxiety who are highly self-critical. Often, my clients describe themselves as intellectualisers, perfectionists and/or people pleasers.

This happens when we learned to avoid our emotions like the plague, and before you know it, your life is all about doing and achieving.

"And the day came when the risk to remain tight in a bud was more painful than the risk it took to blossom." Life can be difficult at times and we tend to experience our greatest challenges when what we are doing is very different from what we would like to be doing. Sometimes our relationships might not be fulfilling or work can seem pointless or unsatisfactory. This can manifest in distressing thoughts, painful feelings and unhelpful behaviours. Our work together will help you to live a more rich and meaningful life.
