"Whatever is wrong, what you want to change about yourself, how you feel, and how your moods and feelings affect you, depends on the emotion in you.

It is a safe and effective treatment for all emotional (that is, emotion-based) difficulties and problems."

So with a compassionate approach, I work with most psychological difficulties, and have a special interest in anxiety and low mood, problematic family relationships, parenting and bereavement. I also work extensively with adolescents and welcome working with those of 16+years."
