Counselling in NW4
Sometimes we encounter problems that can feel insurmountable and we find ourselves suffering and feeling stuck or overwhelmed. For some, the cause may be a specific event or transition in life. At other times, the roots of our struggles may seem vague, experienced through repeating patterns in our lives, depression, anxiety, unhealthy relationships or addictions. Such experiences can be a call for us to look within and to expand our level of awareness and enable new modes of being that allow us to build deeper, more meaningful relationships with ourselves and others.

I'm a trauma psychotherapist, breathwork facilitator, trainer, group holder & play therapist with over 17 years experience. Working somatically, relationally and collaboratively I support you to find balance between building trust & safety, whilst providing enough challenge to find deep lasting change from long standing painful relational patterns. Specialising in trauma, including relational trauma, family dysfunction, childhood and adult sexual trauma. Working with mind, body, soul and spirit, I view the human experience through a holistic lens - you are not a person who needs to be fixed, but have wounds that need attending to.

Therapy might seem daunting at first, but my aim is to bring my clients into contact with what matters in life, to ground them and assist them to encounter themselves and others better.

Making the decision to start therapy can stir up anxiety about opening up to someone new. While therapy can sometimes be challenging, a compassionate, supportive and non-judgemental therapeutic relationship can be profoundly healing. It’s a space where you are fully accepted and can grow. I offer a therapeutic environment free from judgement, criticism, or expectations, where the sole focus is supporting you in your journey. I have extensive experience working with men facing challenges such as anxiety, low self-esteem, relationship difficulties, LGBTQ+ issues, and PTSD.

Connecting and relating to others is often one of life's hardest and most painful parts. Many people face challenges with their relationships, whether that's with a partner, friends, siblings, parents, or even the most important relationship—with themselves. People may come to therapy to talk about their sexuality or sexual challenges, communication blocks or trust issues. Partners may want to explore difficult topics such as a lack of desire or intimacy, or people might be curious to change aspects of their life that are no longer serving them.

Are you having trouble in your relationships? Perhaps that is with yourself, other people or the world around you. Possibly you’re feeling anxious, depressed, lonely, misunderstood, frustrated or stuck.
