About Me

My approach to therapy is both analytical and attentive to human experience. This allows you to pay attention to your present experience, identify patterns of behaviour and links with your past, so that you can begin to put the pieces of your life story together. For many, therapy is supportive, nurturing, fascinating, and empowering.I work with a wide range of issues offering individual sessions to help you understand and improve your relationship with yourself, whether you are facing daily challenges or deep struggles.Psychotherapy and counselling might be helpful when you:
are stressed, anxious or depressed
suffer from panic attacks
suffer from obsessional thoughts
sometimes struggle with inappropriate anger
are confused about your sexuality
experienced abuse or trauma in childhood
feel you have low self-esteem and lack self-confidence
live with eating disorders
have experienced loss or bereavement
want to improve your relationships
feel your life lacks meaning
