My name is Pippa. I'm a compassionate integrative therapist, working with adults aged 18+. You may have a specific issue you want to work through in therapy such as persistent anxiety, relationship challenges, low self esteem or navigating a life change such as divorce. Or perhaps you have a persistent sense of something being wrong and feel that talking confidentially to a therapist may help. Whatever your reason, reaching out is the first step to changing patterns of behaviour that may be holding you back. I can help you gain the knowledge and tools to gain a sense of purpose, self compassion and help you find joy in your life.

Transitions and dilemmas can occur at any point during a person's life. These might include marriage or becoming a couple: changes in role: uncertainty in identity relationship difficulties: pregnancy: childbirth; and the challenges presented during the aging process. It is common to experience uncertainty, confusion, fear, and pressure at times of change or loss. Depression and anxiety may emerge as well as other, less common mental health issues. I work with neurodiverse and neurotypical individuals. It is not necessary to have a mental health diagnosis to benefit from our sessions.

I have worked with a variety of clients across many different sectors. My therapeutic approach can help with anxiety, depression, low self-esteem, relationship challenges or simply a desire to better understand yourself. Many clients find it a deeply rewarding process that fosters greater self-awareness, self-acceptance, and emotional wellbeing. Over many years I have developed a particular specialist interest in working with bereavement, trauma and loss. Clients experiencing trauma need support in processing deep and difficult thoughts and feelings in a safe space in order to start to feel better, which I am able to facilitate. ​

Everyone can feel overwhelmed at times: it might be the breakdown of a relationship, loss of a friendship, daily struggles or those horrible feelings of anxiety that just won’t go away. We might be feeling unhappy but we’re not sure why, we might feel life isn’t going the way we want it to whilst everyone else seems to be doing ok. Talking openly and feeling truly heard can be life changing: we can say all those things that keep going round in our heads, the issues that keep coming back time and again, and work towards understanding what’s going on, make changes and find some peace. Isn't that what we all want and deserve?

I know how tough life can be at times and how lonely it feels when no one seems to understand. If you’re wondering when you’ll feel happy or hopeful again, or you’re worrying about the future and fearing the worst, or maybe you’re struggling with a big change and a sense of who you are; I’d like to help. Being able to talk freely to someone, without fear of judgement or shame, can be a huge relief. Feeling seen and truly heard, and accepted for who you are can be liberating.
