My Approach

Life often involves challenges and we all experience difficulties at some time in our lives. Whether this is within the family, as couples, individuals or even between friends, it can be overwhelming - feeling lost and unsure of what to say or do. I am here to help.

My approach is warm, collaborative and guided by your goals. I draw from a range of therapeutic approaches tailoring them to meet the needs of each individual, couple or family.

My style is grounded in curiosity, empathy and a genuine belief in the power of people's stories and relationships. Sessions move at your pace, offering a safe and reflective space to explore experiences, to find new ways of thinking and putting you at the heart of every conversation.

About Me

I am a qualified Systemic Family Psychotherapist and Family Mediator with over 15 years' experience supporting individuals, couples and families as they navigate life. None of us exist in isolation. We are influenced by our relationships, histories and the environments around us. Every individual, every couple, every family has a story. Some stories are voiced aloud like the ones we tell about who we are. While other stories remain unspoken. Sometimes what looks like conflict or when we feel stuck or overwhelmed is really a story that has been sitting quietly unheard.

I work creatively and collaboratively to make room for those unheard stories. Helping people hear them, understand and make sense of them. Taking the first step towards therapy can feel daunting. I aim to make that step as comfortable as possible, going at your pace.

I offer in-person sessions in Ayr as well as online appointments. If you wish to find out more or arrange an initial appointment, please contact me: mail@familymediationayrshire.co.uk
