Lesbian Counselling in EC2N
I am a UKCP accredited Relational Transactional Analysis Psychotherapist. My approach is relational, which is an efficacious and powerful model of working with individuals who struggle with psychological, emotional and relational distress. Relationships are at the very heart of what it is to be human and a specific pattern of relating might be the roots of psychological distress. In the first sessions, we can explore what are your difficulties and together according to your needs we can create a specific treatment plan.

I can help if you're struggling in your relationship to yourself or those around you. This might include feeling repeatedly let down, rejected, abandoned; feeling depressed, anxious, ashamed as well as self-critical; lacking in intimacy and trust or even fearing others. I can also help if you have been affected by past trauma. You might struggle with food and eating, self-harming or experience unstable emotions as well as substance abuse. You might have difficulty asserting yourself or consistently finding yourself in vulnerable situations and problematic relationships and have difficulty establishing long-term relationships.

Sometimes things in life can start to seem overwhelming; the useful strategies of the past may not be as helpful as they used to; we can find ourselves lost and unsure. This can often lead to added, despair, anxiety, and self-criticism. It can often seem hard to see a way out or to ask for help. You may need someone to listen without judgement and provide insights into understanding patterns in your life. You may also desire strategies to change your actions and the way that you think about things. The way to a fulfilling and valued life is available without a life-long commitment to therapy.

Certain life events, transitions, or longstanding struggles can cause our usual ways of coping to break down, leaving us feeling overwhelmed and extremely distressed. To continue to function, drugs, alcohol, food, self harm, sex, social media, a depressive state or abusive behaviour can be used to numb the distress or stand in for what feels missing. But this often leads to feelings of guilt, shame, anger or blame – whether of oneself or others. It can feel like being trapped in a loop of unsatisfactory or harmful relationships, or like reaching a dead-end, with confusion about finding a meaningful path ahead.

We have all had a unique and perhaps upsetting experience of a global phenomenon. As you step out into your new normal, you may need some help to process your experiences and how to shape your future within this new landscape. I offer professional support through a variety of theories and techniques to deal with immediate feelings of stress as well as deeper exploration of how historical experiences may have affected your current responses and reactions. It is important that you feel in control of your own therapeutic journey and I therefore offer support at your individual pace and to support your hopes and aspirations.
