About me
Life throws all of us many challenges from our past, relationships, families, finances, work and health. We cope well with these most of the time though sometimes we cannot seem to. The disturbances caused by these can lead to negative emotions that affect us strongly.
I am an imaginative and creative integrative psychotherapist who applies several approaches that are tailored to move on from these emotions.
The first steps working with clients are to listen and fully understand you as a person, then identify what is causing the emotional disturbance. Together, we then agree what the problem is, jointly set clear goals and work to meet these through straight talking, some challenge and homework.
During this, personal change is built through increased self-awareness, exercises, analogies, role plays and building self-esteem.
A key part of my approach is to build, with clients, a bespoken toolbox of preventativeand management techniques that can be used in future if they experience other negative emotions.
The positive changes built help us move on, achieve our personal goals, enjoy life to its fullest, experience joy and have fun.
I always strive to provide an empathetic, compassionate, caring and confidential service. This is based on trust, openness, non judgement and safety.
Achieving results for clients, and preventing disturbance again, matters to me and seeing this is incredibly rewarding.
