Many of my clients are thoughtful, self-aware people who understand where their difficulties come from, yet still feel stuck. You might know you are good enough, yet not feel it. You may struggle with low mood, anxiety, low self-esteem or a harsh inner critic that affects relationships, work and daily life. I have a special interest in maternal mental health, supporting women with postpartum anxiety, birth trauma, mum guilt, overwhelm or feeling lost in motherhood, as well as difficulties that continue beyond this stage. Whether you are a mum or not, if you feel exhausted, stuck or disconnected from yourself, you are not alone.
I offer an integrative approach using Schema Therapy, EMDR and Compassion Focused Therapy to help bridge the gap between what you understand logically and what you feel emotionally. We work at a deeper level so change is not just insight but something you feel and live in your day to day life. I offer face to face sessions in Bearsden as well as online.
Reaching out can feel like a big step, especially if you have been holding things together on your own for a long time. It is important that therapy feels like the right fit. I offer a free 15 minute consultation where we can talk through what is going on for you and explore whether working together feels supportive, safe and right for you.
