Are you struggling in your relationships? Do you find yourself falling into the same unhelpful patterns of relating? Perhaps you wish to feel less needy and anxious in relationships, or be more assertive and figure out boundaries. It might be that you are tired of push-pull dynamics, or that you are frustrated by dating and longing for a healthy connection that never seems to work out. Maybe you'd like to change your family interactions, feel more respected or stop the conflict. Perhaps it's the way you treat yourself that's weighing you down and you'd like to feel more at peace with self and others but don't know where to start.

Are you looking for a safe and confidential space, a place to help you break your silence about the challenges you face?

People often come to me when they aren’t managing to keep things together like they usually do. Maybe you lost someone, or something’s tipped you over an edge. You know things can’t go on like this. You might be experiencing shame, anxiety, or loss. Or perhaps something’s off in your sense of self, your closest relationships, your decision-making at work. You might need some time to find your equilibrium. But you also need time and space to unpack what’s going on with you, and to begin to find out what you want… and perhaps a way to try something new.

As a mother of four and a family support worker for many years before qualifying as a counsellor, I have first-hand experience of the challenges of family life and how difficult it can be to navigate. The days can start to feel overwhelming and unmanageable, inducing massive stress and anxiety. Or perhaps the early years were okay, but now the family is mature and you are feeling sad or stuck, with no sense of how to move forward. Therapy gives you the chance to focus on who you are, as well as your relationships with others and the world around you.

Taking the first steps towards seeking help can be daunting. You may feel overwhelmed, frustrated or confused about how to initiate change and healing. In our therapy sessions, we will work together to explore your life experiences, challenges and emotions. This may take place in varying forms depending on what works for you. I am trained as Integrative Psychotherapist and Arts Psychotherapist so can adapt my way of working for you to find exactly what you need from therapy. A session may focus on looking at your childhood or past experiences, or it may be centred in here-and-now difficulties.

At times it feels we are stuck or that we don’t have other options. It can feel that we are powerless and we cannot find ways to pick us up from the floor.

SERVICES I PROVIDE: Like all forms of therapy, integrative therapy requires that you are open to exploring your fears, your hopes, your life, what is causing you challenges, and what you hope for your future. But if you like the idea of a therapy which is a bit more bespoke and less rigid than other forms, then integrative therapy might indeed be for you. Would you like to try this type of therapy?

A warm welcome. My name is Dennis and I am a highly skilled and experienced therapist offering cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT) and gestalt psychotherapy to help your anxiety, your depression, addiction, a loss or bereavement; or just a general feeling that life is overwhelming you at present. I use IAPT, GAD7 and Phobia Questionnaires to first gain an insight into the severity of your issues. We then work on a CBT formulation to examine what may be maintaining the problem (s), and then explore how we can use cognitive and behavioural strategies to bring change. Typically clients and I meet for a minimum of six sessions.

You may be feeling anxious, overwhelmed, or stuck; either in your relationships or within yourself. Maybe you’re struggling with low confidence, caught in repeating patterns, or questioning where you belong. You might feel alone, even when you are surrounded.
These emotional struggles often have roots in childhood, past relationships, or the pressures you’re facing now. They can shape how you see yourself, how you connect with others, and how you respond to stress or change.
