Have you experienced narcissistic abuse, coercive control or domestic violence? Perhaps you are trying to recover from a narcissistic parent or partner, but are struggling with symptoms like low self esteem, anxiety, constant overthinking and self-analysing? Or perhaps you are in a toxic relationship, trying to understand what's going on and find the strength to leave. Narcissistic and other forms of abuse can leave you feeling like a shell of your former self. Would you like to find someone who can help you understand and process the trauma you have experienced, to help you heal and become the person you want to be?
I work with a range of issues associated with abusive relationships, such as low self esteem, people-pleasing, codependency, depression, anxiety and trauma. We will work together to find ways to manage and reduce your symptoms, whilst building your self esteem and confidence. I use a range of therapy models to find an approach that is tailored to you.
I understand how important it is to have a therapist you can trust, who truly listens and provides empathy. This is what I aim to offer my clients, along with a calming and safe environment during therapy sessions. Do get in touch to arrange a free 30 minute consultation or click the website link. I aim to respond to all enquiries within one working day.
