I work with relationship problems, anxiety, depression, self development and esteem and most problems. My aim is to work in a non-judgemental way. I am trained in existential psychotherapy, the principals of which underlie the way I work. In addition I use cbt techniques. I take a creative approach to working with my clients and focus on the relationship before anything else. I believe therapy should be about providing a supportive and compassionate environment, where truths can be discovered and where courage may be required to confront the challenges.

Therapy is a space to be heard, understood, and supported, especially when it’s hard to name what’s wrong but the impact is deeply felt. I offer a safe, compassionate environment to explore anxiety, depression, trauma, grief, life transitions, relationship challenges, health concerns, or adjusting to a diagnosis. I specialise in attachment-based therapy and nervous system regulation, informed by polyvagal theory, to help you heal relationships, build safety, and foster deeper connections. Together, we’ll work to help you move forward with greater clarity, balance, and resilience.

You might be in the middle of a crisis, feeling stressed, overwhelmed or disconnected, or maybe you want to come to terms with something that happened long ago. Or possibly you are feeling stuck in a cycle of difficult feelings, thoughts and behaviours, struggling with a significant relationship, or feeling unable to find meaning, peace or happiness in life. I will be alongside you as you explore and make sense of your thoughts, feelings and experiences in any area of you life. You would be free to choose how you use your therapy sessions, and I aim to bring compassion, acceptance, attentiveness and honesty in our work together.

Neuro-Linguistic (NLP) Counsellors
How does neuro-linguistic programming work?
A therapist using Neuro-linguistic programming might start by building a strong rapport and gathering information about the client’s objectives and any problem areas. Then the NLP therapist will employ NLP techniques to guide their client toward healthier thoughts and behaviours. Clients will learn how to better manage their moods and hone their communication skills. NLP will conclude with the therapist and client making a plan for how to integrate the positive changes into their daily life in the future.

What are some techniques used in neuro-linguistic programming?
NLP therapists often employ anchoring, so the client begins to automatically associate their trigger with a healthier response. Clients also learn how to reframe a situation to change the way they react to it for the better, and how to replace the negative beliefs that are holding them back. Many NLP clients practice visualisation or forming a mental image of themselves attaining their goals. Every NLP therapist will have their own preferred approach with specific techniques that they have found to be helpful for their clients.

How long does neuro-linguistic programming take?
Since neuro-linguistic programming is not regulated, the length of treatment can vary greatly. Some therapists may only use NLP in a single session, while others may employ it over the course of weeks, months, or even years. It depends greatly on the type and severity of the problem being treated, as well as the individual client’s response to NLP treatment.

Is neuro-linguistic programming evidence-based?
While some people may find neuro-linguistic programming helpful, either in therapy or in their career or personal development, the science behind this approach is inconclusive. Most of the available studies are small in scale and have produced mixed results, and the commercial nature of NLP lends itself to conflicts of interest. More research is needed. In the meantime, practitioners must use their best judgment of whether NLP techniques will be helpful in meeting their clients’ individual needs.
