You may be feeling stuck, overwhelmed or unsure of yourself, possibly living with the impact of past experiences such as trauma, abuse, loss or difficult relationships. You may want to better understand yourself, make sense of repeating patterns, or find a steadier way of relating to thoughts and feelings. You do not need to arrive with clear goals, but are open to exploring your inner world and working towards greater clarity, self-acceptance and emotional resilience
I offer psychodynamic therapy in a grounded, non-judgemental and collaborative way. I help clients explore patterns and past experiences to better understand the present, using creativity and intuition we will focus on past relationships, childhood experiences and attachment needs to better understand the here and now, building self-awareness.
Starting therapy can feel really daunting, especially if you’re used to coping on your own. You don’t need to know what you want to focus on and may feel overwhelmed - we can explore all of this together. If you’re considering reaching out, you’re welcome to do so - we can talk about what’s going on and whether working together feels right for you.
