About me and my therapy practice

[Fully booked/on leave until 29 October 2019].  Feeling overwhelmed in a busy world? Struggling with difficult feelings?  At odds with others and yourself? ? Dealing with a loss that others don't know about or understand? Would it help to talk confidentially, without being judged or told what to do? Then maybe I can help.

What matters to me is what matters to you.  I offer you space to express and explore the thoughts that may have been charging around, unfinished, in your head.  Time to talk about your challenges and the feelings they lead to.  What you, as a person, need to help you live more peacefully and be all you can be.

You won't have to defend how you feel, worry about sounding confused or contradictory or protect others' feelings,.  So you're free to be as open and honest as you choose.  To explore the strands of what's going on for you, and clarify how you want to deal with things in future.

I have particular experience and interest in working with:-

- Difficult feelings (anger, envy, guilt, hurt, longing, rejection, resentment, shame)

- People who often find themselves out of synch with the people or environment around them

- Losses which aren't recognised by others, or are hidden and can't be talked about for some reason

- Birth-related issues and childhood experiences

- Traumatic deaths, including murder, suicide, road and drug deaths

- People who experience their emotions as physical sensations in their body
