About

I work on line providing a friendly and confidential service. I believe on line work is successful, efficient and encourages free and intimate communication. No need to travel. I value and offer face to face sessions when permitted. I have 15 years of experience in both psychotherapy dealing with complex problems and counselling offering help with day to day difficulties. I can help with anxiety, stress and depression as well as lack of purpose and feelings of meaninglessness. I assist with family and relationship difficulties and conflicts, including providing couples counselling. 3 key words: kindness, diversity and compassion.
I have in depth experience working both with clients battling in their professional life with work-life balance and also those with learning disabilities including dyslexia and post-stroke memory impairment and clients coping with limitations due to physical disability or chronic illness including rheumatic arthritis, chronic fatigue, ME and fibromyalgia.
I specialise in working with busy professionals and ex-patriates, providing support through the stress of commercial life. Some clients have emotional problems mostly, others couple this with disabilities. There is also impostor syndrome! Home life is important; abusive relationships are tough and can warp our view of life. A welter of issues. I can help.
