Do you get road rage? Do you swear when angry? Has anger damaged your relationship/s? Do you suffer angrily in silence? Is your anger causing you depression? Anger is a symptom and often has its deep roots in childhood experiences, especially in situations where there was a withdrawal of love or emotional neglect. The foundation of our emotional regulation and expression is often laid during our early childhood. We have emotional needs for affection, attention, and validation. When these needs go unmet, anger can become a coping mechanism.

Each person is unique and distinctive and therefore one approach may not fit them all. I place the client-therapist relationship at the heart of an effective therapeutic process providing an honest and non-judgmental stance where your feelings can be expressed and contained in a safe and confidential setting. You might want to make sense of the past and explore how it can sometimes be reconstructed in the present or you might seek to get back in touch with your real self through acceptance and a better mind-body connection.

Perhaps you have been feeling anxious, worried, stressed. Maybe 'depression' is a word that seems to fit. Or maybe you have been feeling confused, let down, and just seek more clarity and more support about who you are, what you want, and how you can get there. I work with both men and women.

Counselling can help you to explore and work through emotional difficulties you may be experiencing that could be affecting your thoughts and behaviours. It is a space for you to share things that you may be finding difficult to talk to your friends and family about. These difficulties may be from your past that are now causing problems in your present or from a more recent trauma you have experienced in your life such as a relationship break-up, loss of someone close to you or difficulties with getting to sleep or sleep not feeling like sleep anymore, but feeling more like an escape.

You are most probably working through a series of profiles, getting increasingly baffled. I feel your pain! I work with clients suffering from anxiety, depression, those facing an ending, or a new beginning, or sometimes those that just feel 'off' or lost. Therapy, and finding a safe space to explore your worries can be genuinely life changing: we can talk about your goals and expectations of therapy and your life. This space can help you to trust in yourself, and to empower you. I really believe in talking therapy and providing kinship. I have a special interest in grief and bereavement.

Hi, I help stressed professionals to feel more calm and in control of their lives. The idea is for you to gain some practical tools and strategies to manage your busy life. This can in turn reduce and manage your stress and anxiety. Perhaps you're feeling overwhelmed, exhausted from pressure and looking for a more sustainable lifestyle? Maybe you're feeling stuck in life, with wavering self-esteem and want your motivation and confidence back? I know it's not easy when you feel like you're struggling to simply keep your head over the water. I've been there myself, and am fully committed to support you through this challenging time.

The troubling part of your life being dominated by addiction is the denial. It leaves you feeling guilty, ashamed, and lonely. Without really noticing, your life becomes disconnected from those you love and what you enjoy. Your mental health becomes affected by living a double life, especially when you are functioning. Functioning is not living; it’s surviving! When decisions are made based on the need to suppress your thoughts and feelings, that is also not living. If you have been exploring Psychology Today and the description above resonates, I hope you know you are looking for another way of living or to be now heard.

I practice under an integrative approach which means I draw from a variety of models and techniques of counselling and psychotherapy to ensure that anyone who comes to see me has the opportunity to be met and understood as a unique individual. I provide a safe, contained and confidential space, where you can explore your unique issues, providing a non-judgemental and supportive space for you to work at your own pace. The principal goal in therapy is to assist in the learning of trusting in your own process, which gives way to self-empowerment and the ability to make choices from a deeper part of yourself.

I am a Relational Therapist, working with you to raise awareness of the ‘why’ behind the challenges you face, in order to gain release from suffering. As an experienced therapist, informed by professional and lived experience, I am able to hold the space for deep and sometimes difficult exploration, in which I am active with unimposing intervention and challenge, to support re-connection to your authentic self. A private practice professional in the therapeutic space since the mid-1990s, I’ve lived and practised in Australia, Asia, Africa, Europe and the UK, with extensive experience working cross-culturally, with great sensitivity.
