This is an extremely troubling time, I am experienced in working online. I work with Individuals and couples with anxiety, depression and finding ways of coping. Talking about sex, sexuality and relationships can be extremely difficult. Our own feelings of shame can keep us feeling trapped and feel that there is nowhere to go. I offer a non judgemental space to be able to talk sensitively working to resolve issues. We will agree the focus of the work from the outset and keep this in mind throughout the journey together. We will work together to facilitate change in the areas you feel are needed.

I work at your pace. I facilitate the conditions for you to develop a better relationship with yourself and others. For you to be effectively in the world and to live and love. Our capacity for growth and our quality of life are spoilt when, for whatever reason, we are haunted by the past, we stop being present to ourselves or others, or we lose our footing in the world. The psychoanalytic relationship is about supporting fundamental change. I am a psychoanalytic psychotherapist, member of The Guild of Psychotherapists and fully accredited by UKCP. I abide by the Ethical Codes of Practice of The Guild and of UKCP.

Life at times can be challenging, people can often feel isolated and stuck in their struggles, confused about what to do to change the things in life that are troubling them. Reaching out can be hard, trusting others can feel even more difficult. It's at these times that therapy can make a difference. I am a sex-positive, kink-knowledgeable psychotherapist and am familiar working with a range of relationship models and gender dynamics. I work with people from a diverse range of cultural backgrounds, including individuals from straight, queer, poly and kink communities, sex workers, and people who identify across the gender spectrum.

I offer a space for you to reflect and examine the issues that matter for you. Therapy isn’t something that is done to you, rather, it’s a relationship between client and therapist, characterised by honesty, empathy, compassion and candour. My practice involves creating connections - taking time to understand who you are, the space you’re in and you fit into your environment. Working relationally, I aim to build trust with clients so they can begin to feel safe to speak about their concerns. I recognise that it can take a while to build trust – and that is fine. Therapy is about you and you determine its pace.

Hi? Thank you for taking the time to read my profile. I work with all ages & couples. I run Liverpool, Wirral, Manchester, Chester & Southport Counselling Association. I am also a qualified Supervisor in the Counselling Field. The key to counselling is to connect with your therapist. Without that connection achieving your goals from therapy can be more difficult. If I felt you could possibly be better suited to one of the other therapists within our service, I would advise a free consultation with them to. Thank you for your time and good luck with your journey
