All of us at some time or another find life overwhelming and difficult to navigate. Coming into psychotherapy and counselling can feel both anxiety provoking and deeply relieving. I believe that the person who makes the decision to come for therapy is both brave and courageous. You are deciding that you want your life to be different to how it is. When you want to find a different way forward with whatever issue is bothering you or indeed tired of the same repeating issues coming your way, therapy can really help you change the way you relate to yourself and others.

My interest in psychotherapy, spirituality and meditation began after the end of my marriage several years ago, which like many other types of losses, triggered a lot of suffering. Life transition, family and friends losses, the breakup of long-term relationships, stress, anxiety and depression are all part of human suffering. However, we have an innate capability, which we can strengthen, that allows us to navigate and, more importantly, learn from our most difficult life experiences.

I find it deeply rewarding to help young women build self-esteem and overcome life’s challenges. My goal is to guide them toward fulfilment in their careers, relationships, and overall lives. I specialise in anxiety, self-esteem, workplace and creativity issues, relationship challenges, and managing chronic illness. Even after trauma, living a purposeful life is achievable, and that's the focus of my therapy approach. Therapy isn't just for those with depression or anxiety—it’s a valuable resource for anyone sensing that something in their life isn't quite 'right'.

Are you looking for an experienced counsellor to explore issues that are presenting in life and are causing difficulties? These could be relationships, personal crisis, addictions, or other challenges you may be dealing with. We live in a complex and ever-changing world and emotional distress can occur in anyone's life for a whole variety of reasons. In my practice I see how compassion, self-knowledge and understanding can be transformative and with the right care and supports clients take back control of their lives, overcome old trauma, manage present day challenges and setbacks, identify and achieve their personal goals.

Throughout our lives we encounter situations that challenge us. Sometimes we just can't get passed them, we get stuck and cannot seem to find a solution. As a result we become anxious, stressed or even depressed. I work with clients in a non directive way through psychoanalysis, which allows the client look at their situation or problems, explore the potential causes and find a way of dealing with them. There is no 'one size fits all' solution to personal difficulties, everyone's experience is unique and the psychoanalytic approach allows the client find a solution that is individual to their situation.

My ideal client is someone who needs help and seeks it out in order to feel better and return to a richer and more harmonious inner world and outer world.

I strongly believe in the importance of a personalised approach. The therapeutic process will help and support my clients in order to identify and address the source of their problems. My ethos is simple, I work side by side with my clients and I facilitate and support them in order to understand the stress and suffering that they are experiencing within the context of their life-history. I believe that no ones story is better or worse than others as our own pain cannot be measured. Regardless our circumstances, we all deserves to be listened to.

I am an experienced Chartered Counselling Psychologist who works with adults struggling with a range of issues, including feelings of worthlessness and self-hatred, relationship difficulties, depression and apathy, anxiety and avoidance. I also have a particular interest in helping people who have suffered abuse, trauma or systemic oppression to relieve themselves of self-blame and start to heal and feel strong and in control again. I fundamentally believe that people's intense distress and troubling symptoms are not a sign of deficiency or disorder, but a reasonable and understandable response to what they have been through.

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.
