Hello and thanks for visiting my profile. I have experience in helping clients with issues around anxiety, trauma, relationships, depression, abuse, motivation, self esteem, and confidence.
I believe in a personalised style of therapy that's adapted to suit every client individually. My initial therapeutic approach will always be person-centred, focusing on you and your experience of life right now. I'll attempt to understand things as you understand them.
As our sessions and therapeutic relationship develop, we can discuss other approaches if they seem like they could be useful.
Talking therapy is a two-way interaction that depends on what the client brings and how the therapist responds. Please take some time to consider what you want from therapy.
Perhaps you simply want a confidential space to say things you feel unable to say in any other area of your life. Maybe you want specific coping mechanisms for day-to-day issues.
You might want to refocus historic family issues, trauma, or abuse. This can help to gain greater clarity and understanding about yourself. You might want to bring about personal change, but feel confused or stuck.
Navigating through life's issues can be hard, but reaching out for help is a significant and courageous first step.
Additional areas of focus: Attachment issues, Communication problems, Control issues, Guilt and shame, Isolation / loneliness, Life purpose, Narcissism, Panic disorder and panic attacks, Post-traumatic stress, Sexuality, Social anxiety and phobia, Workplace issues
