Are you feeling depressed, anxious, or just not yourself? Maybe recent events or past traumas are making it hard for you to cope. I can support you while you explore your concerns which, in turn, can help you find new ways of dealing with your problems, make different life choices, and find a way forward. I have experience working with anxiety, panic attacks, depression, trauma, relationship difficulties, and eating issues. I have a particular interest in work related stress and its impact on mental wellbeing. My approach is relational, so I work with you and at your pace as you explore what you want from life and relationships.

I am an integrative counsellor which means I believe the past, especially our relationship (or lack of relationship) with our parents/caregivers shapes the person we are today. As your counsellor aim to provide a safe space for us to work through your issues, recognising and changing unhelpful beliefs with a view to helping you towards becoming your best self. I believe like a phoenix we all have the ability to rise from the ashes and it helps to have a counsellor who you feel is really in your corner.

Building positive, stronger and more fulfilling relationships is at the heart of all my work whether that relationship is with yourself, with your family and loved ones, at work and certainly between you as a client and me as your therapist.
Our world is full of uncertainty at the moment. The impact of and issues surrounding corona virus and black lives matter may be contributing to you feeling increasingly low or overwhelmed. Perhaps you're feeling anxious about something that you previously took in your stride, or finding the stress of work, education, or family life difficult to cope with? Or perhaps you're feeling lonely, isolated or low on self-esteem ? Counselling can provide you with the opportunity to talk through your feelings, be listened to and help you find your way to a fuller, more balanced and enjoyable life.

Finding the right counsellor for you is imperative, as the relationship between counsellor and client is key.
Welcome! I am an American-trained member of the BACP, with 9 years of experience working as a psychotherapist. I have worked with clients struggling with a range of mental health difficulties (chronic and acute: depression, anxiety, stress, trauma), but have specific experience with relationship issues (infidelity, breakups/divorce, struggles to connect); grief, bereavement and loss; and addiction. My style is warm and interactive, but challenging when needed. Being non-judgmental, and treating others with respect, sensitivity, and compassion is the bedrock of counselling, and is built into all of my feedback and reflections.

Psychological research consistently demonstrates that the quality of the therapeutic relationship is the primary indicator of positive outcome.
There are many reasons why people seek psychological support, perhaps they feel stuck in one or more areas of their life or they have noticed unhelpful and hurtful patterns of being, both with themselves and others, and would like this to be different. People may want to better understand where these patterns come from and how they can change. Often life can ‘look good on paper’ and yet a person can feel unhappy or that something is lacking in their life. In therapy we can explore what might be underlying a sense of discontent or unease.

Addiction is a relational problem because it impacts so much of the love and trust in a relationship.
The troubling part of your life being dominated by addiction is the denial. It leaves you feeling guilty, ashamed, and lonely. Without really noticing, your life becomes disconnected from those you love and what you enjoy. Your mental health becomes affected by living a double life, especially when you are functioning. Functioning is not living; it’s surviving! When decisions are made based on the need to suppress your thoughts and feelings, that is also not living. If you have been exploring Psychology Today and the description above resonates, I hope you know you are looking for another way of living or to be now heard.

Life can often be complex and exploring issues in conversation with another person can be illuminating, perhaps understanding how past experiences are influencing current issues. This can and does bring about change in our relationship with ourselves and others. In our sessions together, you can talk about whatever is on your mind from the present or the past, and bring feelings and thoughts for us to consider. Your trust and sense of safety is important so I will encourage you to move at your own pace.

Sometimes aspects of our life can overwhelm us. Life events such as a bereavement, relationship/family issues, a job loss or isolation can leave us feeling fearful, stressed and unable to cope. We can also feel stuck in certain patterns that we wish to break free from. Talking about all these things can help to bring balance back into our lives and gain a new understanding of ourselves. I aim to make it possible for you to speak about things which you might not have put into words before and ask questions to help you with your thinking. Giving yourself the space to talk openly and be heard can bring about tremendous change within.

This focuses on unpicking the types of disagreements couples find themselves in again and again, getting to the heart of the issue and creating meaningful change within the relationship. My individual work can be structured (for example, using strategies and techniques), more exploratory or a blend of both. The purpose of all of the therapies I use is to develop your understanding of your problems, break unhelpful behaviours and build better coping strategies.

While need for human connection appears to be innate, the ability to form healthy, loving relationships is learned. Some evidence suggests that the ability to form a stable relationship starts to form in infancy, in a child's earliest experiences with a caregiver who reliably meets the infant's needs for food, care, warmth, protection, stimulation, and social contact. Such relationships are not destiny, but they are theorized to establish deeply ingrained patterns of relating to others. The end of a relationship, however, is often a source of great psychological anguish.
