I’m a qualified Psychosynthesis counsellor. Psychosynthesis is a broad and inclusive system which has many different techniques and approaches that can be tailored to you and your needs, given that you are unique! I emphasize warmth, kindness, sensitivity and empathy in my approach. I work with people who are experiencing; depression, anxiety, anger and rage, loss and grief, relationship issues, self-esteem issues, feelings of despair and childhood abuse and trauma. I work with people to achieve real, concrete, lasting change in their lives - and have received plenty of positive feedback confirming this!
The 'transpersonal' approach informs much of my work, and I use principles and techniques from; CBT, Existential Therapy, Gestalt Therapy, breathing and somatic awareness, object relations theory, early childhood dynamics as well as Vedic astrology. I am competent and able to work with you in order to achieve significant, lasting change in your life.
I create an atmosphere of safety, consistency, understanding, honesty and unconditional acceptance when I work with clients. I understand that feeling truly listened to, understood and seen, is a really important part of helpful and successful counselling. Please get in touch with me if you wish to know more.

After an initial presentation of the problem or issue you are dealing with and any necessary information gathering, I will work with you to create a sense of what your life would be like if this issue was addressed, to build an 'ideal model' for your future. We will then look at what is stopping you from reaching that ideal future, and dismantle these 'blocks', step by step.

My main training is in Psychosynthesis, which works with Sub-personalities, Love, Will, the imagination, meditations, the 'ideal model' and many other ideas. I also incorporate ideas from Cognitive Behavioural therapy, Dialectical Behavioural Therapy, and mindfulness practice, to help you become more and more free and 'disidentified' from the thought and feelings that are causing you difficulties.
