My approach is individually tailored to help you expand and grow in self-awareness, build on inner strength and utilise your own unique resources with the view to promote greater sense of inner freedom and psychological growth.

In sessions we work together to build on insight and understanding into what is underlying the challenges that bring you to therapy. We look at what is causing you difficulty and how it is impacting on your life and well-being. We may explore implementing alternative ways of being that are more in tune with your truth and your nature.

More indepth psychotherapy would involve looking back at your past history with the view to gain more insight into how your past life experiences might be informing your current difficulties and impacting on your relationships. We would explore any patterns in relationships dynamics and make sense of your own responses and behaviour in your relationships.

I like to work combining mind, body and spirit by bringing together mindfulness, inquiry into experience of felt sense and use of imagery when appropriate to facilitate a more wholesome holding. We attend to what emerges in the present moment, paying attention to the immediate experience and the dynamic of therapeutic relationship.
