Our ' relationship blue prints' restrict us - until we process experience (pre-memory and pre-verbal), in the present, and gain embodied soothing and insight.
Early experiences, when we had no choice or voice, shape our Nervous system patterns. Although they were vital at the time, we unconsciously 'repeat' out-of-date Survival Strategies, leading us to feel helpless, hopeless, cynical, embarrassed, defeated or stuck. We might feel disconnected from ourselves and others. Part of us might long for more intimacy and another Part of us may also fear it. The connection and communication between body-brain-mind may have been disrupted or compromised, and even if we cognitively know that our patterns limit us, making and sustaining changes can be too tricky to achieve on our own.

If you’re feeling stuck, overwhelmed, disconnected, or caught in repeating relationship patterns, counselling can offer a space to pause and understand what’s happening beneath the surface.
I am an integrative counsellor who works with individuals and couples, my approach integrates Person-centred therapy, Psychodynamic psychotherapy and Attachment theory. This means we explore not only present issues, but the deeper relational and emotional patterns that may have developed earlier in life.

I offer a confidential space for us to build a relationship of trust with mutual respect, with the goal of investigating and working through any difficulties you may be facing.
Have you ever felt an unpleasant heaviness on your chest or tummy? There may be a struggle to articulate your thoughts, leading to a sensation of suffocation in your throat. Have you ever felt like avoiding others for fear of getting hurt, or you may have felt disconnected and unheard? You want to show strength and courage; instead, you feel afraid and helpless.
