During lockdown I found online therapy to be just as effective as in person, but in different ways. I therefore offer both, but have fewer spaces for face to face sessions. Many clients choose to have a combination of both.

About me and my therapy practice

I see clients online via Zoom, FaceTime and Skype.  I specialise in:

 

Recovery from Narcissistic Abuse (how to get out of a toxic relationship and make a better life for yourself)

Bereavement/Loss (processing difficult feelings about a loss of any kind)

Codependency (difficulty with relationships with others and yourself)

Trauma (making sense of an out-of-the-ordinary circumstance)

Addictions (of all kinds, including relations/friends of addicts)

Parenting (especially children with special needs)

Menopause (navigating difficult emotional and physical changes)

New Beginnings (letting go, reinvention, moving on)

Depression and Anxiety (untangling one from the other)

Loss of Confidence/Self-Esteem (tools for rebuilding)

Decision Making (weighing up all options thoroughly)

and anything which is bothering you, nothing is too small. If it's a problem to you, it's a problem!

Practice description

I see clients via zoom, Skype, FaceTime and VSee.

My first session

I offer an initial session at a slightly reduced rate, during which we talk about what has brought you here, how things are now and how you would like them to be in the future. If we decide to carry on working together, then the next few sessions will involve looking at your past family relationships in order to see any patterns or inherited beliefs which may not be working for you any longer. Having looked at those in depth, towards the end of therapy we become more practical and plan how you're going to make the necessary changes.
