Practice description
Area of Expertise:
1. Anxiety
Living with anxiety can be overwhelming, affecting various aspects of your life. Together, we will explore the root causes and develop effective coping strategies to manage and alleviate anxiety symptoms. My goal is to empower you to regain control and create a life filled with resilience and peace.
2. Low Self-Esteem
Low self-esteem can hinder personal growth and happiness. Through a collaborative and compassionate approach, we will work towards enhancing your self-worth and self-acceptance. I am dedicated to providing a supportive environment where you can explore and challenge negative self-perceptions.
3. Trauma and PTSD
Experiencing trauma can leave lasting impacts on one's mental health. I am experienced in helping individuals navigate through the aftermath of traumatic events. Together, we will process and heal, fostering resilience and reclaiming a sense of safety.
4. Depression
If you are grappling with feelings of sadness, hopelessness, or lack of interest in life, I am here to support you. We will work collaboratively to identify the underlying causes of your depression and develop personalised strategies to lift your mood and improve overall well-being. Together, we'll work towards creating a path for lasting positive change.
5. Loss and Bereavement
Grieving the loss of a loved one is a unique and challenging journey. I offer a compassionate and empathetic space for you to navigate through the stages of grief. Together, we'll honour your feelings, memories, and find ways to cope with the profound impact of loss on your life.
6. Sexuality
Issues related to sexuality can be sensitive and complex. Whether you're exploring your sexual identity, facing challenges in relationships, or dealing with intimacy concerns, I provide a non-judgmental environment for you to express yourself freely.
