There are many reasons we seek support. Perhaps you have been feeling preoccupied by your emotions like anxiety, panic or low mood; have experienced difficult or traumatic life events or bereavement; or find yourself stuck in relational or behavioural patterns that are no longer serving you. These are heavy experiences to carry on our own, in doing so, we may begin to feel cut off from ourselves or the world around us, and stuck in a cycle beyond our control. As your psychologist, I am here to help you make sense of what you are experiencing, what direction you would like to move towards and support you to reclaim your life
I focus on building a relationship between us that feels safe, non-judgemental, compassionate and responsive to you. I am trained in evidence-based therapies of Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Compassion Focussed Therapy, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy and a range of Trauma Focussed Therapy. I will match my approach to what best suits your needs
Even if we know we would like support, starting therapy can feel daunting for lots of reasons: "Is what I am experiencing ok to seek help for, what if they judge me, what if I don’t know how to talk?" If any of these resonate with you then know that you are not alone in these worries, and that wanting support is always valid, no matter what it is for.
