I provide a safe and non-judgemental environment where you can explore and make sense of your feelings, thoughts, and behaviours, whilst integrating CBT techniques and Mindfulness where appropriate.
At different stages in our lives, we encounter difficulties that prevent us from fully enjoying life. It can be anything from anxiety and depression, to the loss of a person (through death or relationship breakdown), to deeply rooted emotional issues (such as low self-esteem or inability to form relationships). Other times, we are unable to fully explain what is troubling us - we just know that something is. Asking for help can be difficult - finding the right kind of help and support can be more challenging. With each person and difficulty being unique, I tailor my approach to suit each client's needs and communication style.

I studied Mindfulness Teacher training following 16 years of counselling experience, both areas help clients spot their behaviour patterns and decide where to change.
Welcome, you may be feeling Anxious at the moment? What many people don't realise is Anxiety underlies many mental health issues, from Sleeplessness to Panic Attacks and from Depression to a lack of Confidence (and a lot more). Maybe you're unhappy due to repetitive relationship 'failure' or having difficulty maintaining friendship causing you low self-esteem? I believe my work has helped people improve as I have received only complimentary reviews claiming their anxiety has diminished and confidence has increased (see my website). I use the best supervision available and attend cutting edge CPD as I aim to offer you my very best

I'll then pinpoint the things that simply can be practised (queue me geeking out over neuroplasticity), while staying 'present in the present' ( mindfulness etc.
I am a Person-Centred/humanistic therapist, focus strongly on the emotional and relational, on the validating bond. My therapy space is one of safety and acceptance. No value judgements. No pathologizing. And from you: no more beating up! Indeed, I wholeheartedly will support your right to fuck up. You're a human-being, a Mensch. This is how we learn, by slipping up. I'll then focus on what lead to the slipping and any other obstructions that stand between you and a happier/more fulfilled you, then will explore ways with you to tackle these, through everyday little positive actions. All das übrigens gerne auch auf deutsch!

Is something holding you back from living the life you want to live? Do you question why you keep repeating the same patterns? When emotional problems arise it can be difficult to know where to turn and pressures to cope can leave us isolated and desperate. My aim is to help you explore your feelings, thoughts and emotions and the affect they have on your behaviour and mood. I see the therapeutic process as a collaborative one, with the two of us working side-by-side to develop your inner resources, improve awareness of yourself and your relationships with others.

Mindfulness-Based (MBCT) Counsellors

How does mindfulness-based cognitive therapy work?

Mindfulness-based cognitive therapy originated in the work of John Kabat-Zinn of the University of Massachusetts Medical School. He developed mindfulness-based stress reduction, which is a technique found in yoga and meditation. MBCT is a combination of this type of stress reduction and cognitive behavioral therapy; it essentially quiets emotional distress through mindfulness, utilizing proper breathing and meditation. These techniques aim to bring the individual into the present moment when in a state of distress.

When do I know if I need treatment with mindfulness-based cognitive therapy?

If an individual’s mind is filled with emotional distress and general negativity, the person may feel trapped. A mindfulness-based cognitive therapist can help a person change their thinking patterns as well as their behaviour through calm acceptance and compassion. This therapy can provide an individual with the coping skills needed for a healthier and more constructive life.

What should I expect from mindfulness-based cognitive therapy?

This therapy often takes place in group sessions. A therapist will work with the group as well as with each individual. Meditation and breathing exercises are core practices that aim to invite inquiry and discovery into a person’s troubled mental state. The objective is to identify and lessen negative thoughts and behaviours and move toward optimal health and productivity. The individual will see life in a more realistic way. This therapy is supportive, accepting, and warm.

Is mindfulness-based cognitive therapy effective?

Mindfulness-based cognitive therapy is evidence-based and effective. One study found that people with major depressive disorder have benefitted from this type of therapy; the person accepts their distressed thoughts and also moves into healthier patterns of thinking. This therapy also aims to move an individual away from automatic negative responses. This type of therapy can bring a person lifelong change, with higher levels of satisfaction, less stress, as well as positive emotional and behavioural habits.
