I am a therapist who will always be supportive. Whether you are feeling full of doubt, overwhelmed, sad or lost, or if life lacks meaning, I can empathise with your challenges and support your move through life's transitions into more comfort. As a person-centred therapist, I adapt to your needs and values, and work with you to explore your wisdoms, meanings and connections. You can grow your confidence, and develop your strength and resilience. You can trust me because I will always act in your best interest. I run a not-for-profit so fees are variable; tell me what you can pay. Businesses charged at couples rate; Ask for T&Cs.
I use person-centred therapy and CBT. I take a biopsychosocial, systems approach i.e. I provide therapy and rehabilitation as appropriate to your experiences, individual psychology, lifestyle, your physicality and health status, and your social/contextual facilitators and barriers. I help with all problems including those found in your job or education.
I would really like you to see if you feel you can work with me. I encourage you to reach out and see if what you get back from me meets your needs. We can have a remote or face-to-face meeting, talk in writing or by phone, or by voice message. I'm flexible and accessible for you, and I will adapt to whatever communication methods suit you best.
