My Approach

As a systemic and family therapist my focus is on the influence of important relationships of all sorts both in the present and in the past. Systemic therapy looks at generational patterns of relating and behaving and how these play a significant part in problems experienced in the present. I am interested in the stories of people's lives. Within this approach many of the 'problems of life' can be understood and resolved through changes in how we relate to others and to ourselves. I aim to keep things simple. I work in a non-judgemental, collaborative way with my clients to navigate where they have come from and where they want to go to. I do this in a flexible, creative and adaptive way. No two stories are the same and as such I don't adopt a single way of working. I tailor my approach to the people who come to see me. I seek feedback and have adopted the philosophy 'do what works' in helping people to achieve their goals in therapy. I can offer both online and in person appointments.

About Me
