Thaddeus Hickman

I’m an experienced therapist working with individuals struggling with anxiety, low self-esteem, depression and relationship issues. I work with clients to understand their current emotional concerns, identify underlying and often unseen issues, and work collaboratively to bring about the change you seek.

You may feel that you are struggling with these issues alone and that you can’t talk to your partner, friends or family. You might worry that these issues keep repeating themselves and that you will always feel stuck. Perhaps this is affecting how you feel about yourself in your relationships and at work. This might lead to you feeling confused by your feelings and think you need to hide them from everyone, though you know that this only makes it worse.

I see therapy as offering a space to step aside from your everyday life - a confidential and judgement-free space - where we approach your concerns with curiosity and compassion. By exploring the feelings and experiences you find difficult, we will uncover, process and come to understand what might be holding you back. 

How therapy works for you
Clients experience a variety of outcomes, from the initial sharing of a problem that has been weighing them down, to a growing and deepening understanding of how these issues came about, to positive change in their key relationships, to how they feel about themselves on an average day.

Through this process, I will work with you to gain insight into your emotional reactions and behavioural patterns - such as getting angry, frustrated, scared, withdrawing or self-criticising - as you begin to build a new self-awareness. This emerging understanding will provide you with new ways of responding to situations you find difficult and - in the longer-term - will help you develop more of a say in how you lead your life and in the increasing life choices you can make.

Next steps?
If you connect with what you've read here then contact me to book a free 30 minute consultation where we'll discuss what you want to get out of therapy, I can answer any questions you may have and you'll get a sense if working with me feels right.
