I work with adults and children, face-to-face and online, who struggle with depression, trauma, grief and more. During our initial sessions, we will delve into the issues at hand. Together we will create a plan for addressing these in a way that helps you get your life back. Most of my clients see a gradual lifting of symptoms within the first month and sustained improvement thereafter.

In the first sessions, we will explore what brought you to therapy to decide the most appropriate way forward. I often combine solution-focused brief therapy which is a talking therapy with solution-focused hypnotherapy to alleviate stress and anxiety by putting you in a trance-like state. In extreme cases, I use brain-working recursive therapy replacing a negative image with a positive one.
