Bu Therapy works with YOU. You are, after all, the expert with what is going on in your life today. Together we will work on areas that might be affecting your life and what you would like to change. CBT (Cognitive Behaviour Therapy) looks at the present rather than the past and identifies negative or maladaptive thinking styles that make you see things differently and out of focus. I will work with you in a collaborative manner so we can correct this “blurred view” of life and bring clarity, focus, and direction back into your life, and “together we can come out of the darkness and into the light".

Having worked in the field of mental health for over 30 years, I have a deep understanding of the challenges people are faced with on a daily basis. How we experience these challenges can become overwhelming and we can feel alone, helpless and disconnected. There may be times when it's useful to seek help outside of your current circle of support by talking with a counsellor and I can help you find new ways to explore and manage the difficulties you are experiencing. I work with individuals & couples to offer short-term counselling to address immediate concerns, and long term psychotherapy to address complex issues.

Therapy is a space to be, a gift of self-care. This is an opportunity to receive, to be heard, to learn healthy and adaptive ways to be in relationship with self and others. My approach is wholistic, integrative, and intuitive; guiding you to identify, feel, and understand your needs and emotions, reset and nurture the nervous system, learn to hold boundaries, and connect to your authentic self. Helping identify and transmute beliefs that no longer serve, from "I'm not good enough" to "I am worthy"; moving from fear to love & acceptance. Helping the mind-brain to communicate and ground into your heart and body.

Gestalt therapy is a psychotherapeutic approach to transformation through connecting to your senses and your embodied experience. Working at depth in this way supports you to understand yourself and others better. It sheds light on new ways forward beyond old patterns.
Experiences like anxiety, depression, low self-esteem, struggles with relationships or difficulties at work can feel like blocks to living the life you want.
Facing into such challenging emotions or difficult situations and finding a new way through can be fruitful and is usually much easier when you do it with support.

You might be feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or struggling to cope with things that feel heavy or hard to make sense of. This could be anxiety, low mood, relationship difficulties, or the impact of loss or past experiences.
I offer a warm, down-to-earth and non-judgemental space where you can talk openly at your own pace. Together, we can begin to understand what’s been going on for you and find a way forward that feels right.

If you can’t get moving, feel rubbish all the time and don’t find joy in anything, therapy can help.
I work with people who are experiencing painful, runaway thoughts, and feelings that won’t be managed or don’t make sense.
Do you have the nagging sense that old feelings or incidents that you couldn’t fully deal with at the time are still affecting you? Sometimes it’s clear where difficulties like anxiety, depression, insomnia, mood swings and stress are coming from, but at other times they seem to arise for no good reason.

Going through times in life when we feel overwhelmed, confused, or dissatisfied can be very painful. This is when we may need support, rather than going it alone, to understand more about ourselves, what’s happening for us, and begin finding a way forward. The safety, care, and support available in therapy can register with us on a deep level, and bring about more ease, confidence and enjoyment in how we live.

Spirituality Counsellors
What should I expect from therapy that incorporates a focus on spirituality?
Spirituality can mean different things to different individuals, depending on their experiences, beliefs, and life histories. Some individuals focus on strengthening their belief system, while others experience spirituality in secular ways, such as through meditation, yoga, or by spending time in nature. Clients can expect a therapist to help guide and grow their spirituality through any of these techniques, encouraging the individual to cope with the challenges they face and develop strategies to build resilience and purpose to improve their outlook in life.
What are the most common treatments that include spirituality?
There are several treatments that incorporate spirituality. Mindfulness-based cognitive therapy (MBCT) helps a person examine and reframe their negative thoughts and behaviours. Acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT) focuses on emotional acceptance and psychological flexibility. Existential therapy is most often used to address anxiety, depression, grief, loneliness, apathy, despair, questions of identity, and feelings of purposelessness and existential dread. Transpersonal therapy focuses on a client’s spirituality and meaning in life and may incorporate techniques including meditation, visualisation, hypnotherapy, dream analysis, and or breathwork.
Can therapy incorporating spirituality help atheistic or agnostic individuals?
Yes. For non-believers, spirituality can offer benefits including a greater sense of connection to others and to the natural world. An interest in spirituality may also spur individuals to pursue mindfulness practices, or to contemplate their purpose in life and how to achieve it.
How effective is spirituality as a therapeutic remedy?
Research suggests spirituality is generally beneficial for individuals. It is correlated with better health habits, such as less substance use, and an improved capacity to cope with stress and other mental health challenges. Increased spirituality can lead individuals to become more empathic and less materialistic, as well.
