Lots of us face challenging situations at some stage in our lives, which can be difficult to manage. It's not always easy or appropriate to talk with family or friends and sometimes we worry that bringing something old and / or hidden up to the surface will cause more problems. I offer a confidential and non-judgemental space where we can work together to help you to develop insight and understanding by exploring how your present situation might be impacted by past experiences and people from your past and / or present.
I'm a qualified, experienced psychodynamic counsellor and EMDR practitioner working with adults, primarily online. I work with people facing emotional difficulties, like sadness, anxiety, depression, loneliness, fear and with people who have experienced difficult and / or abusive relationships. I offer weekly sessions where we work at your pace.
I appreciate that it can feel daunting to reach out. If you would like to get in touch to talk about how I can help you, please call, or email me. Your first session is an opportunity to see whether you think we can work together. If you’d like more information about my practice and what I offer, please take a look at my website.

I believe that past experiences, particularly those of childhood, influence how we feel about ourselves and the patterns that we repeat in our relationships with other people. By exploring your past we can build on your understanding of how the past impacts on the now and we can work together to help you reflect on how you respond to events and explore the relationships you have.

I use a Psychodynamic way of thinking to help you understand how your current feelings and behaviours are shaped by your past experiences and your unconscious drives. Using this frame we explore the past and its impact on the present. I am also able to offer EMDR to help you to see things from a different perspective and to help take the heat out of past experiences.
