About me

At some point in our lives we all need a helping hand, particularly if one is feeling anxious or depressed. I offer a safe and confidential environment to support you and identify areas in your life that may be causing you difficulties. A key part of my work is the nature and quality of the relationship. I understand that everyone is unique, and so I work in different ways to encourage you to develop greater insight, awareness, and understanding of why problems have arisen and how change can happen. Our relationship is built on trust.

I am a fully accredited Psycho-dynamically trained therapist with a MA in Contemporary Therapeutic Studies. This enables me to incorporate elements of person-centered, and cognitive behavioural therapies, to work with both conscious and unconscious processes.

Struggling with emotional issues, can impact on the way we move forward, which can cause us to feel frustrated, frightened and apprehensive. Working together we can explore both past and present experiences that may be impacting on your life now. With understanding and empathy we can discover and develop more beneficial coping strategies which may also help reduce feelings of anxiety and depression and help you feel calmer about managing your situation.

All of our work together will be confidential. Please feel free to contact me on the number stated to have an informal chat, and make the first step into feeling better.
