My Approach

Taking the first step towards finding the right therapist can feel like navigating uncharted waters. I understand that this journey comes with uncertainties, questions, and perhaps even a touch of apprehension. It’s a choice that reflects your commitment to your well-being.

In a world full of tasks and pressures, deciding to seek support for your mental health is a big step. It shows your strength, resilience, and a wish to lead a more satisfying life. I’m committed to creating a therapeutic relationship based on trust, respect, and working together. We can look at the issues you’re facing, discover your strengths, and move towards the changes you’re hoping for.

Psychotherapy can help with:

1. Improved Emotional Health: Psychotherapy can support you in recognising, understanding and communicating your feelings more effectively. This is especially helpful if you’re dealing with depression, anxiety, or stress, as it can lead to a significant improvement in your overall mood and emotional state.

2. Enhanced Self-Awareness: Through engaging in psychotherapy, you can gain a deeper insight into who you are and what motivates you. This can help you understand the root causes of dilemmas and challenges, enabling you to make more informed decisions about your life.

3. Strengthened Relationships: It offers strategies to enhance your communication skills, resolve conflicts, and understand others’ perspectives better. This can lead to healthier, more fulfilling relationships with friends, family and partners.

4. Stress and Coping Skills: You’ll learn effective techniques to manage stress and cope with challenges, which can increase your resilience and ability to navigate difficult situations with greater ease.

5. Resolution of Trauma: It provides a secure environment to explore past traumas and work through them, which can diminish their impact on your current life and help you move forward.

6. Increased Life Satisfaction: By addressing and working through specific issues, psychotherapy can lead to a greater sense of contentment and joy in your life, enhancing your overall satisfaction.

7. Prevention of Future Issues: Equipping you with the skills to face potential stressors or mental health challenges in the future, psychotherapy can play a critical role in preventing minor issues from developing into more significant problems.

About Me

In a world that often feels fast-paced and overwhelming, I find solace in offering a space where authenticity and connection thrive. My journey into the field of psychotherapy was driven by a deep curiosity about the human experience. Over time, it transformed into a passionate commitment to support individuals like you in navigating life’s twists and turns. What sets me apart is not only my comprehensive five-year MSc degree in psychotherapy but also my dedication to understanding each person fully. Since 2014, my path in psychotherapy started with placements in the voluntary sector and the NHS, and since 2017, I’ve been in private practice. This journey has equipped me with a deep understanding of diverse human experiences.
