Do you sometimes feel like there’s a tug of war happening inside your head, find it impossible to make decisions and stick to things, or find yourself acting in ways you didn’t want to? Sometimes, different parts of us have conflicting ideas about what we need, and might even try to help us in ways that make our lives worse! Together we can work to connect compassionately with different parts of you, listen to their stories and understand why they behave the way they do, helping you to gain clarity and make life-affirming choices in the present.

Therapy is a journey. We can choose to ignore that part of us that hopes for more in life and in many ways that's the easier option. The therapeutic journey is not easy. It can be extremely painful at times, but it can also help us to live again. Since you are reading this there is part of you that wants change, that wants to live in the way you once imagined. It's not too late. I can't give you the answers you are looking for, you have those. I can help you to connect more to yourself, which might mean working through some painful parts of your story. It won't be easy, but I will stay with you, as long as it takes.
