About me and my therapy practice
I work with adults and adolescents to help them gain more choice and control over how they live and how they form their relationships.
Therapy can help us make the best of our lives in a world where sometimes things don't go to plan. Feelings of confusion, sadness, anger, or being unable to feel at all; how we deal with a specific crisis such as bereavement or a relationship breakdown; or simply how we find a sense of meaning and richness to life are some of the many reasons why people decide to start therapy.
I work with people to explore and understand themselves better and to help find their own solutions to challenges they may be facing. With increased awareness and understanding we become able to change patterns and behaviors that do not work for us and can take charge of our lives. My approach is centered on taking personal responsibility, and using the process of therapy to live life more fully and with a greater sense of agency. This can mean exploring in depth the past and its effects, or the work may be very focused on the present moment and current circumstances and relationships.
I want everyone I work with to feel safe enough to explore any issue they need to in a non-judgemental and confidential environment. I am warm, thoughtful and sincere and I treat everyone as an individual and with respect.
