About me and my therapy practice
Are you finding things difficult and struggling to cope with life? Are you constantly anxious and stressed? Are your relationships suffering?
Therapy allows you to express your thoughts and feelings freely in a confidential space. Together we will explore the issues that have caused you to seek help as well as looking at any other issues that arise.
Many clients come with an internal critical voice that tells them they are not good enough in many different ways. An increased awareness of this critical voice can allow you to change how you speak to yourself; so you become kinder to yourself and build self-esteem.
Talking and thinking about your thoughts and feelings increases your self-awareness and allows you to reflect on how they affect your relationships. Increased awareness leads to an ability to make new and different choices and to make positive changes.
Practice description
I am a psychodynamic therapist which means that I work with experiences in the past to understand the issues you face in the present. We will explore your childhood and early relationships in order to understand why you are who you are. As you become more conscious of why you behave or feel a certain way in particular situations you will be able to have more choice about how you respond or manage in those situations in future.
My first session
An initial session is an opportunity for us both to decide whether we should work together. We will discuss the issues that led you to seek help and talk about what you are hoping to get out of our work together.
What I can help with
Abuse, Addictions, Anxiety, Depression, Eating disorders, Health related issues, Identity issues, Infertility, Loss, Pregnancy related issues, Relationships, Self-harm, Trauma, Women's issues, Work related issues

About me and my therapy practice
Please make contact if you are looking for a supervisor who will help you develop your practice and deepen your thinking about clients. I am passionate about working with the countertransference and I focus on what is going on unconsciously in the therapeutic relationship. I provide a safe place where all aspects of your client work can be thought about.
Practice description
I am a psychodynamic supervisor and who works predominantly with the counter-transference. My role as a supervisor is to help you zoom out and take a third position in order to see what is going on in the therapeutic relationship. I will help you process what is going on in the sessions in order for you to digest the material and make sense of it.
If you are interested in deepening your understanding of what is going on at an unconscious level in your work with clients then please get in touch.
My first session
If you would like to book in a first session we can meet and discuss what you are looking for in a supervisor and I can tell you a bit about how I work. Together we can think about whether I might be a suitable fit.
