Opening up to someone new can understandably make you feel anxious. You may wonder, "Will I be judged?" "Will I be told I'm a hopeless case?" A lot of the time we can be own worst enemy. We tell ourselves that we are not good enough, not capable, or not loveable. We get frustrated, angry, depressed, anxious, and stuck in a world which sometimes feels fake and hollow somehow. We allow others to bully us, walk all over us, hurt us and destroy our dreams. However, all is not lost. Often all we need is just a small change in our perception, and to be seen and heard. This can make a huge difference.

Do you feel disempowered, anxious, and stuck? Sometimes, life's difficulties can prevent us from forming healthy relationships with ourselves and others, and prevent us thriving in life, work and within families, friendships, and partnerships. We can feel our creativity and spark for life is blocked.

What do you need to get your life on track, to feel fulfilled, relevant, in control and in the drivers seat? Sometimes we just need a bit of support to get there, an outside eye, a gentle challenge. We always need, and deserve to be treated with sensitivity, respect and dignity. Life is full of challenges, but you don't need to face them alone. Letting someone in can be scary, but you really do deserve to be supported, and you have every right to live a fulfilling, rich and creative life.

I originally trained in Psychosynthesis, a transpersonal approach that supports you in meeting life's challenges while embracing a sense of your whole Self.
Many of the people I work with feel anxious, stuck, or caught in painful patterns that affect their daily lives and relationships. You may struggle with persistent self-doubt or a harsh inner critic. Or you may feel overwhelmed by emotions, unsure of yourself, or impacted by difficult experiences from the past that still seem to shape the present. Often, there is a sense of wanting things to be different but not knowing how to change them. You mightlong to feel calmer, more confident, and more secure in who you are. Or you want to understand yourself more deeply , not to judge or “fix” yourself , but to feel at peace with yourself.

Often, the reasons given to me for arriving to therapy are feature one or more of the following: anxiety, depression, sadness, self confidence, life changing illnesses, self identity, early childhood, past or present relationships, bereavements, traumatic experiences, injury and mental health diagnosis. How these issues and difficult feelings manifest in people's lives are unique and so 'reasons' may be identified as problems or difficulties with: addictions; work; intimate or family relationships; children and parenting; personal or spiritual identity, or something existential. Therapy offers to solute and salve these issues.

Our work together may allow you to develop more awareness of yourself, your patterns and your story so far, ultimately allowing you more freedom in your ability to choose. My aim is to help you to lead a more fulfilling life. I will also be curious about your social, economic and cultural situation, as I am mindful of the stresses and challenges of living in the modern world. I work with adults, aged over 18 and I work both face to face and online.

Totnes TQ9
My training has encompassed a range of these models; Psychodynamic, Attachment based Existential, Transpersonal, IFS, and Body psychotherapies as well as Mindfulness and CBT.
People come to therapy for all sorts of reasons. Some come with a specific problem they want solving. Others want to explore more deeply - towards greater clarity, direction, depth and meaning in life. Some have a particular idea or diagnosis in mind but don't find it's enough to guide them towards feeling better. Rather than starting with a fixed label, approach or technique I start with you - what's happening right now, what have you tried, what are you hoping for, what are you concerned about, or maybe even dreading. From there we draw on a range of techniques and approaches at your pace, shaped by your needs and history.

Transpersonal Counsellors
How does transpersonal therapy work?
Transpersonal therapy focuses on a patient’s spirituality and meaning in life. Transpersonal therapists might borrow from Eastern traditions as well as Western psychology. They may incorporate techniques including meditation, visualisation, hypnotherapy, dream analysis, and or breathwork to produce altered states of consciousness. The therapist helps the patient to access their consciousness and spirituality to work through difficult mental states.

How long does transpersonal therapy last?
Because the goal is to understand a person as a whole, including their spirituality, treatment can range from months to a year or beyond. While patients learn the philosophy behind transpersonal therapy during treatment, they can also practice its principles throughout life after therapy sessions have ended.

Is transpersonal therapy effective?
Patients have found success with transpersonal therapy; this method is useful in improving anxiety, depression, self-esteem, identity, fears, relationship problems, and other concerns. Improvements in problem areas can continue even after transpersonal therapy ends, as individuals can utilise the tools they’ve learned during treatment sessions.

What are the limitations of transpersonal therapy?
There is some research on the effectiveness of transpersonal therapy, but empirical support for this therapy approach is sparse. It does not have the robust evidence base of other forms of therapy, such as cognitive behavioural therapy or acceptance and commitment therapy.
