I offer psychodynamic psychotherapy to adult individuals who crave change, possess a curiosity towards their inner world, and who seek insight and emotional expression. I tend to work with those who are experiencing anxiety, depression, relationship difficulties, life stage transitions/adjustment, loss and identity. Through supported exploration and deeper understanding of their difficulties, clients find the capacity within themselves to improve the quality of their lives, build resilience, and foster more satisfying relationships with others. I also offer BWRT as a shorter-term therapy and am trained in Levels 1 and 2.
I provide help and support within a warm, compassionate and empathic therapeutic relationship, assist in the relief of symptoms and distress, and create a safe space in which clients gain clarity and deeper understanding of their personal experience.
As your therapist, I will create an accepting and non-judgemental environment in which we will work together through painful and difficult experiences in the hope that you can reconnect with your feelings and inner resources to flourish as the unique individual you are.

Attachment-based psychodynamic therapy explores the interactions between internal/external triggers, feelings, anxiety and behaviours, and how these manifest in your past, current and therapy relationships. BWRT works with the reptilian brain to change current and future brain pathways and responses to trauma and distress.
