If you are feeling unable to cope, or are struggling to break out of old habits or self-defeating patterns, you don't have to navigate the journey to well-being alone. Together, we can find and integrate the tools you need to reconnect with a valued life, and to build a healthier, more compassionate relationship with yourself. I am well equipped to help individuals with a variety of conditions including mood disorders, eating disorders, personality disorders, and the autism spectrum; however, you do not need a diagnosis to need support. We all get stuck in unhelpful ways of thinking and doing; it's part of being human.
Although my approach is tailored to your specific needs, mindfulness underpins every process; building present-moment awareness is the cornerstone to change. With this, I can help you learn healthier ways to tolerate distress, regulate emotions and engage interpersonally. For individuals struggling with their body image, I offer a structured programme.
Taking the first step is always hard. The process of trying to find someone who feels like the right fit makes it even more challenging. The fact that you are here means that you have put your first foot forward. Whether it's me or someone else to whom you choose to reach out, you have taken a brave first step. With that being said, I hope to meet you soon.
