I believe the relationship between a client and their therapist is the cornerstone of what therapy is about. My approach values the whole person, mind, body, and soul, thoughts, feelings, and emotions. A relationship that is built on trust, honesty, and respect in a confidential space. I use an integrative humanistic approach. My work is primarily grounded on Person-centered therapy, choice theory, mindfulness, and existential therapies. I also work in areas of Cognitive Behavioural Therapy ( CBT ) and Family Systems. My goal is to work together with a client to create a counselling journey that is right for you in total confidence.

Maybe you have been struggling for some time? Maybe you feel stuck and don't know where to go next? It is understandable and common in our society to experience difficulties with mental health at points in our lives. I believe in working alongside clients to help you feel empowered to develop insight, knowledge and skills. This is with the overall aim to help you move in the direction that you would like to go.

My approach to treatment is very much guided by the person who walks through the door. I do not believe there is a one-size-fits-all form of therapy and the direction the treatment will take will be informed by the relationship between therapist and client. I use an integrative approach that involves humanistic, psychodynamic and cognitive therapy; whatever I feel best suits the individual client’s needs. While in session, I try to create a safe and non-judgemental space where my clients can explore what is going on for them in the moment. We then work together to make the changes they wish to see in their lives.

Do you feel anxious and overwhelmed and struggle to understand why? Maybe you are experiencing problems at work. Or perhaps you have issues in your relationships with friends and family. Whatever struggles you are going through, let's see if we can work together to shed light on what is going on and discover what will empower you to live the life you want.

In a time when we seem to have more material possessions, money and social connections than ever, there are a lot of people struggling with anxiety, depression, isolation and a sense of emptiness with the thoughts and feelings that they are the only ones feeling this way. We look around and see other people who seem to have it all together and then feel worse about ourselves without any idea about how we can change our situation. If you feel stuck and can relate to any of the above please let me encourage you to maybe put yourself first. It can be very helpful to chat with someone about what's going on and how to make changes needed

With the wide skill set of an Integrative Therapist, I find that organically, talking therapy and body based therapies harmonise in the therapy room where clients get to talk, to name emotions, to feel them emotionally and to break down their physicality, demystifying responses, such as anxiety, and aiding the regaining of personal autonomy and full participation in life. Some clients are top down, and others are bottom up, and recognising this in how I work with each individual client is essential.

I offer support with a variety of issues including anxiety, depression, stress management, maternal mental health, parenting challenges, relationship difficulties and navigating life changes. I have a particular interest in supporting new mothers in this time of huge transition, and I offer a group program and "walk, talk, coffee" sessions specifically for new and new-again mums. My therapeutic approach is humanistic and integrative, drawing on person-centred, psychodynamic (exploring childhood issues), and CBT theories, along with mindfulness techniques. Sessions are client-led and tailored to the clients' needs and goals.

Welcome,my practise involves only online sessions with active but empathetic approach, goal directed dependently on an issue, solution focused, creativity and humor, collaborative analysis and search for an understanding of a client psyche and life circumstances, confidentiality, open and safe space for exploration of a wide range of topics, non-judgement and consistent support with encouragement in difficult moments, constructive challenge, an open mind and welcoming attitude to everything you bring into the session. I am using CBT , like also REBT and Schema Therapy with consistent humanistic core conditions throughout a process.

Find Balance with Safe Point Therapy. Life isn't always easy. It is often a constant roller-coaster of ups and downs - with daunting highs and deadly lows. I believe it is a ride not meant to be navigated alone and endeavor to support you on your journey. Do you feel stuck? Are your cycles of unhappiness becoming longer and more intense?  Does Stress and Anxiety have you feeling overwhelmed? Perhaps you feel trapped in your relationships? Are you finding it tough to alter self-sabotaging patterns?

Sometimes in life you need a place to explore the difficulties that arise. Either behaviours, feelings or emotions. At times you need to be listened to confidentially and without judgement. What troubles our minds can have such a negative impact on the quality of our lives. Psychological troubles come in many forms, relational both to oneself and to others, grief and loss, behavioural problems from anxiety or depression and rage or sometimes it's hard to tell exactly what it is, only a sense that things are not right. The first brave step to take is to share that difficulty.

I work with people who have a variety of difficulties and varying degrees of distress, such as depression, anxiety, suicidal ideation, addiction, and bereavement. I strive to offer a safe, supportive and understanding space for all my clients. I very much believe (and have seen in practice) that therapy is a helpful means for resolving current and/or past issues which may affect people and constrain their ability to lead a fully functional and satisfying life. I have a special interest in (i) psychotherapy for older adults, (ii) addiction and (iii) couples therapy.
