Together, in our therapeutic relationship, we will explore your own inner conflicts and emotional distress, and examine what these mean in an atmosphere that is confidential, safe and collaborative. The integrative approach I use will give you the opportunity to develop your self-awareness and explore your own potential to create positive changes in your life, as well as improve your sense of well-being

I am motivated by a lifelong curiosity in people and their capacity to develop. I believe that the relationship between therapist and patient can be a vehicle for growth. I have worked with addiction, relationship and sexual issues, depression/anxiety and loss, as well as dealing with anger and violence. I am a psychodynamic practitioner. This means that as a therapist I am interested in listening to you and trying to help you understand how past experiences, often from childhood, affect your life today and the way you view yourself. Together with the therapist you can think in a different way about your past, present and future.

If you are feeling alone, overwhelmed and experiencing difficulties in relationship or noticing the same unwanted behaviors repeating, we can bring a sense of health and forward movement to your life.

The counselling journey is never the same but in most cases, it starts with helping the client pinpoint their current challenges and struggles and get clarity on their patterns of thinking and behaving. We will also try to envision what the term “better life” looks like. We will then move into understanding how these patterns came to be. We will explore how these patterns are impacting the client's life. Finally, I help the client decide what changes must take place for their life to improve.

Hello and Welcome. I am qualified Counselling Psychologist and I have a deep interest in human development, particularly in attachment, and how our early relational experiences influence how we later relate to ourselves and others in the world. Life can be challenging and overwhelming at times, and one can find it a struggle to cope. My therapeutic work is aimed at providing a safe and trusting therapeutic space in which one can feel able to explore and process deep hidden emotions and start to make the changes that will improve both your mental and physical wellbeing.

Extreme trauma exists in PTSD but in some way all of us experience trauma from the school bully to the manager who does not listen. We all have states of anxiety and depression. What is a normal state and how do we know if we are heading for a breakdown. What is a balanced happy life? We can have control of some things in our life and other things come along and smack us in the face. What therapy with me does is give you a space for observation without personal judgement or criticism , just questions from me so that I understand your motivations and help shape your goals. Sometimes your answers are in the past, often in the present.

My approach is to invite you to talk about yourself, about your relationships present and past, about experiences that may have shaped your ways of being with others and dealing with frustrations and disappointments, about what gives you pleasure and makes life worthwhile. Together we will begin to see why things affect you as they do, how pressures build up and become unmanageable, and how a life without these difficulties might look.

I have a special interest of helping adults who have unhelpful coping strategies that keep them stuck, such as eating too much or too little; drinking too much; withdrawing into themselves; &/or working harder to activate perfectionist & self-destructive behaviours. Perhaps you're questioning who you are as you struggle with such feelings & question if you'll ever feel better? Perhaps you struggle to find the right words to talk about how you're feeling & shut down if others ask how you are? You don't know where else to turn, struggle on & feel afraid of what may happen if you're not okay. You are exhausted & want things to change.
