Most people experience anxiety or depression at some point in their lives and need to cope with pain and confusion. You may feel stuck and unmotivated or need to work through a traumatic experience from your past so you can move on with your life. You might also experience work related stress or be dealing with relationship difficulties. Self-development may also be the reason for seeking therapy. Therapy provides an opportunity to explore and make sense of your difficulties in a safe, non-judgmental environment, to develop your self-understanding and improve your relationships.

I am passionate about helping clients intercept 'stuck' cycles by finding new ways of adjusting and coping. Many of the clients that I work with find themselves struggling with life demands or what the World Health Organisation (WHO) typically defines as 'burn-out' (ICD-10). Quite often they feel overwhelmed, depleted and unable to find an obvious solution to their problem. They find themselves chronically ruminating about the past or worrying about the future, leading to vicious cycles of depression and anxiety. These clients require a specialised therapist who can offer brief, effective treatment.

I am an experienced Psychodynamic Psychotherapist working as a senior clinician within the NHS. I aim to facilitate a judgement free and safe environment for us to think and work collaboratively to address the underlying emotional difficulties that can repeat and play out in daily life. You may be feeling anxious, depressed, low, or worried about certain aspects of your life. Whatever it is that is currently troubling you, if it has reached the point at which it is affecting the quality of your daily life, then therapy can be the first step to understanding some of these difficulties and challenges.

My therapy approach has been particularly effective with clients with low-self esteem, depression, worry, OCD, trauma experiences and social anxiety. Irrespective of the presenting problem, I have found that actively listening to an individual is fundamental to any successful treatment.

Does life feel out of control at times? Perhaps things were going smoothly and then something has knocked you off course, whether that’s a break-up, loss of a loved one or ill-health. Or maybe work and life has gotten on top of you and you’re feeling anxious, exhausted and burnt out. You might not feel able to talk openly about how you’re really feeling to those around you so you’ve decided to look for emotional support from a professional… but you find yourself confused, not knowing who or what approach might suit you best.

It is entirely possible to know exactly what is wrong and still feel unable to change it. I work with individuals and couples who are tired of repeating the same patterns, whether in their own heads or in their relationships with others. I find that most challenges trace back to two areas: the relationship we have with ourselves and our connections with others. When these are difficult, they can become all-consuming and take away from our ability to enjoy life. Whether it is a critical inner voice that refuses to be silenced, or the same old patterns playing out, this can feel tiring and draining.
