Practitioners & Teachers

There are many reasons why you might decide to begin therapy.

It could be experiences from your childhood or more recent history which have been left unresolved, leading to anxiety, depression or toxic cycles of behaviour. It might be what you are experiencing in the here and now; we are living in a time of great uncertainty, change and responsibility, with more access to information and more pressure to appear to “have it all” than ever before. This can feel overwhelming.

Whatever might have brought you to this point, I can provide a safe, non-judgemental and confidential space separate from your family and social group, in which to explore whatever you wish to bring.

I work with adults (18+) on a one-to-one basis to assist you to process, respond to or engage with whatever might be preventing you from living your life to its fullest and happiest. My way of working is based on an integrative training, which means I call on various modalities, for example attachment theory (how we are in relationship), person-centred (you are the expert on your experience) and relational (what’s happening between us here and now).

The first step is the initial session. There is no fee for this, which is 25 minutes long. It can be online, on the phone or in-person. During this, we will discuss what has brought you to this point, your expectations of therapy and any other questions you may have. There is no obligation to make any commitment beyond this session. If you would like to continue, we will pick a date and time to begin our meetings.
