I work with adults who may be feeling anxious, overwhelmed, stuck, or caught in patterns they are finding difficult to change. Some clients come to therapy because of addiction, alcohol or substance use, gambling, pornography or sexual addiction. Others may be struggling with relationship difficulties, low self-esteem, shame, bereavement, family conflict, work-related stress, or a sense of feeling disconnected from themselves. Often, people appear to be coping on the outside while feeling very different inside.

At In-Focus Psychotherapy, therapy is not about fixing what’s “wrong” with you - it’s about exploring what’s real and true for you. Together, we’ll consider how your past experiences, relationships, and unconscious patterns may be shaping how you feel and live today. Whether you’re feeling stuck, overwhelmed, depressed, lost, broken, wrong, or simply curious about why you are as you are, this is a place to look beneath the surface, make sense of what isn't working, and move toward lasting, meaningful change in your life. We’ll work at your pace, in a way that feels safe and supported, and always guided by acceptance and curiosity.

Throughout life, many people encounter hardships, emotional distress and anxieties. This can often lead people to become depressed, withdrawn in their relationships, experience low self-esteem, stuck, and ultimately further away from the life they want to live. When we are struggling, we can find it difficult to discover a path towards a fulfilling life. Does any of this sound familiar?

Are you feeling overwhelmed, exhausted, or not quite yourself lately? Perhaps you feel like you are constantly "spinning plates", trying to keep everything and everyone going while your own needs get pushed aside. Sometimes life can look “fine” on the outside, yet inside things can feel heavier, more difficult, or harder to navigate than they should. If this feels familiar, you are not alone. I offer a safe, confidential, and compassionate space where you can slow things down, explore what is happening, and feel truly heard. All parts of your story past present and future are welcome here.

I hold a real respect for the courage it takes to engage in therapy. My work draws on my experience of over 20 yrs in Mental Health, as well as my professional training. I use both to support clients as they explore the complexities of their lives and the possibilities ahead. I am experienced as a psychodynamic psychotherapist. A key difference from more symptom-focused models is that psychodynamic therapy assumes meaning beneath symptoms. Anxiety, depression, anger, even procrastination — these aren’t just problems to eliminate but communications to understand. Change can happen quickly when someone gains a clear insight to 'why'
