I work with relational difficulties which appear in the everyday relationships we have. Managing conflict within relationship or dealing with life can be challenging. Learning to manage conflicts can be a life opportunity for growth and change, leading to deeper understanding of ourselves and those around us.
As an integrative counsellor and psychotherapist I draw on a range of therapeutic approaches to support people who find themselves struggling to maintain enduring and gratifying personal relationships; and who may find they need support with emotional concerns including anxiety, depression and relationship difficulties.
I offer a safe space for you to look at and explore what is happening in your life. I will work with you to identify and understand your various concerns and and the nature of your difficulties, looking at new ways of approaching those difficulties to help make changes or to look at alternate ways of relating. I have a specialist interest in working in a close, interpersonal manner with my clients, to support difficulties with trust, intimacy, dependency and loneliness. A great asset to my work is my knowledge of body psychotherapy and easing the body's holding of trauma.
I have been involved in mental health working as an Integrative Psychotherapist for over 16 years.
Like all UKCP registered psychotherapists and psychotherapeutic counsellors I can work with a wide range of issues, but here are some areas in which I have a special interest or additional experience.
