About me and my therapy practice
Our work starts with us building a safe relationship together where you can begin to reflect calmly on your situation. From here we can begin to explore the issues you are facing and the difficult feelings you may be experiencing.
My approach focusses mainly on dealing with how you are managing now, in the present.
If you are happy to do so, we can explore your developmental experiences and how your childhood experiences may be affecting how you are today and the beliefs and responses you have adopted. These insights and experience can often support you in make changes or different choices now.
My areas of specialism include relationship issues, trauma and abuse.
I offer a separate reduced fee structure for women who have experienced sexual violence or abuse of any kind
Practice description
I work very much in response to your needs. Too often, especially early in life, we have been told what to think and how we should be. This can be at odds with how we really feel and what we really want to do and how we really want to behave. We do not feel we can be ourselves and are caught up in how we feel we ought to be. This can lead to confusion, distress, internal conflicts and you not being able to be your true self in relationship. My work with you is to untangle these threads and unconscious pressures and find the underlying person who is able to express themselves confidently in a way that is true to themselves, not in service to, or to please others.
