Are you feeling stressed? Anxious? Depressed? Low self-esteem? Lack of confidence? Struggling with overwhelming thoughts? Not knowing how to cope with your self or your mind? Suicidal thoughts that are terrifying? Perhaps you're struggling to move on from traumas you've experienced? Maybe your relationships are a struggle? Or familial dynamics are overpowering you? Or you're feeling anger or irritability? Perhaps you've suffered a bereavement or loss of an important person and are feeling overcome with grief and loss? Perhaps your fraught with symptoms of ADHD or other mental health issues? Or maybe you're wondering about your purpose at work or what life is all about? 

Whatever problems you are suffering with, I provide a safe space without judgement to listen and walk through your issues, thoughts and feelings to help ease some of the burden and make life easier.

Counselling and psychotherapy is not a one size fits all, so I work with you as a unique individual to collaboratively determine a treatment plan that best suits you as an individual. As an integrative relational psychotherapist, I do this via incorporating a variety of techniques to suit your needs. I create a safe space for you to feel unconditionally accepted and free from judgement to help ease what can often feel like the unknown process of therapy.

We may begin with stabilising techniques to help you cope with the day-to-day and ease the symptoms of, say, depression or low-self esteem that you are suffering with. We may delve into your relationships and traumas to make links of how your current situation is haunted by your past and how you can work through these. We may collaboratively analyse your purpose in life to help make it more fulfilling. However we choose to work together, I will follow you in your goals for the therapy to help achieve them.

In the first session, I offer a free assessment to gently gauge what you're suffering with and what goals you'd like to set for the therapy. It's a chance for you to determine if I am the right therapist for you and if I can help you with those goals. We would collaborate on the length of therapy, be it long-term or short-term. We may decide to begin with short-term work so you can get a deeper sense of what therapy is like and what sharing your problems with me feels like. My aim is to make you feel safe and secure and if you are happy to embark on the therapy, we can agree the day, time and fee for weekly therapy.
