It can be helpful to know that there is not one 'right' way or specific 'real' reason to start therapy. For example, whilst some people approach therapy with a particular issue to explore and work on, it is not unusual to feel there are different issues - or even that things aren't clear, early on. I will help you engage with what is essential to and for you.
I’m Harriet.
The photo is of me in front of a dry-stone wall. These are walls that are often sturdy, but can be beautiful even when they have tumbled down and aren't doing the job they had previously. They can look like they are in control, or be less fixed and firm. I would take your lead and learn about how you like to talk about your experience, but you can see I often think in terms of landscapes. Paths forward aren't found by following someone else's map but by developing self-knowledge and confidence to take more ownership of your own direction. When life is challenging a therapist can help you to do that. I work online and in-person (outside/walking therapy).
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.
