About me and my therapy practice

Congratulations on deciding to have therapy! 

What could be more important than gaining awareness about who you are and how you function in the world? Therapy can support you in developing a more flexible, creative and open minded approach to your life and the challenges that come with it.

'When we are no longer able to change a situation - we are challenged to change ourselves.' Viktor E. Frankl

If you choose to get in touch with me, I hope you will find me warm, accepting and non-judgemental. I have been trained to use a person-centred, relational, existential approach but if this means nothing to you ( and it certainly wouldn't have done to me prior to my training) I can explain more when we meet.

My intention is to provide a service tailor made for you and over my three decades of working in the mental health/personal development field I have gathered lots of experience and ways of working - tools, techniques and ideas that I hope will make your experience of therapy with me interesting and enjoyable.



Practice description

You are a unique individual with your own personal experiences, needs, hopes and desires and I am here to listen to you and help you to understand yourself more deeply.

Together we can work out how your past might be impacting on your present and help you to find ways to change the way you feel about your past so you are no longer held hostage emotionally or physically by it. I use a trauma informed - cause and effect approach in which I ask 'what happened to you' rather than 'what is wrong with you' and together we will work to help you find ways to become more emotionally balanced and resilient.

During your lifetime you have gathered lots of resources (internal and external) that help you cope with life and its' inevitable challenges. Whilst working together I will support you in starting to remember the resources that really work for you as well as discovering some new ones and this will lead you to feel more confidence and enhanced self-esteem. By learning to accept and love yourself, you will feel more positive and be better equipped to understand, accept and love other people so relationships and experiences can become more manageable and/or satisfying.

We will take a holistic approach and you will be supported in gaining awareness about your mind- body-soul connection and become more aware about how you feel emotionally, physically and spiritually. You will work on becoming more present in the here and now so you can learn to enjoy what is happening now rather than being dragged down by thoughts of the past or anxieties about the future. By observing your thoughts, feelings and behaviours you will gain awareness and space to start practising new ways of being. By doing this you will be creating new neural pathways and connections. You can quite literally change your mind!
