My Approach

My practice includes using creative tools, working with dreams and somatic (body) practices. I work on a wide range of life's challenges, psychological, emotional and relationship issues. This can help resolve current problems and initiate self change of long-standing behavioural patterns.

Sometimes we look at the past to make sense of the present, freeing up space so the now can be truly lived. My training in the whole body mind experience, and trauma informed therapy, helps me work in an holistic way, viewing you as a whole person, your heart, mind, body and soul.

Even if you are afraid or unsure I would encourage you to take the first step on your journey home to self.

‘Many people suffer from the fear of finding oneself alone, and so they don't find themselves at all' - R.May

'You cannot find yourself by going into the past, you find yourself by coming into the present' E.Tolle

Here are some of the issues we can work on:

Anxiety
Generalised Anxiety Disorder
Depression
Anger
Addiction(s)
Relationship issues
Abuse
Relational trauma
Couples
Affairs and betrayals
Separation and divorce
Intimacy in relationships
Bereavement and Loss
Low self esteem and lack of confidence
Stress
Bullying
Panic disorder
Isolation and loneliness
Work related issues
Redundancy
Uncertainty and disappointment
Disempowerment

I have a special interest in the emotionally absent parent and relational trauma.

Counselling can help us live in the here and now even though we are all affected by the past. Some mis-understand the reason why a therapist asks about their past, not feeling any need to 'go there'. What comes up for us when we talk about the past, is often what we are still carrying. This awareness, which becomes finely attuned with regular therapy, is the heart of the matter in helping us live in the present. Therapy is about opening your body, mind, heart and spirit, slowly and safely. Coming home to self can enable us to truly live life.
