About me and my therapy practice
I believe, that it is one thing to listen to someone when they speak, but it is another to truly hear what they are saying. In sessions my aim is to offer true warmth and honesty so that we can work together and build a trusting therapeutic relationship.Practice description
I can offer you a safe, non-judgemental, confidential space, my full attention and support to look at any emotional, social or mental health concerns that you wish to bring.
Working together, at your pace, we can explore what is troubling you, uncover any root causes and
patterns that have developed and identify specific ways of thinking. We can then look at identifying what you need, create some strategies to help reconcile your issues and find ways of coping.
I am an integrative therapist; this means that I draw on different approaches to inform our work together. Therapy can be long or short term, dealing with issues such as anxiety, depression, shame, blame, guilt, relationships, family issues, trauma, bereavement, loss, low self esteem and self worth.
Couples /relationship counselling- This form of therapy aims to improve communication and resolve issues within an intimate relationship. My aim is to help couples understand how external factors such as lifestyle , family values and culture can affect relationships and how to communictae in a more effective way.
