We all have mental health and just like our physical health can sometimes need help, so does our mental health. Our thoughts, feelings and emotions can feel over whelming and too much sometimes. Starting a therapeutic journey and having someone to talk to can help lessen the over whelm and support you through your challenging times. Therapy gives you a space to talk about whatever you want with no judgement. My role is not giving advice or problem-solving, but to sit beside you on your journey as we explore your thoughts and feelings.

Most of us go through times when we feel low, worried or anxious. This might be linked to things like anxiety, panic attacks, night terrors or depression, or it may be a general sense of feeling down without knowing why. Talking with an experienced therapist can offer a calm, confidential and non-judgemental space to explore what’s troubling you, and to gently make sense of how your life experiences may be affecting how you feel now.
