My Approach

Life can be difficult, and the stories we tell ourselves can often limit and block us in leading the life we truly want to lead. As an experienced, and skilled integrative psychotherapist, I draw on a variety of different approaches, to assist you in meeting your particular needs and goals. I use the relationship we gradually build together to shine a light on understanding other relationships in your life, to better understand yourself, and develop the resources to live more authentically and heal past trauma.

Through offering a safe, non-judgemental place to explore, we can be curious and better understand how negative thoughts, patterns and ways of relating may be holding you back. Working collaboratively, and utilising the therapeutic relationship, we shine a torch on different areas of difficulty to gain insight and empower change and growth to meet your goals.

I believe in a holistic approach and use attachment-focused therapy, psychodynamic psychotherapy, body psychotherapy, CBT and aspects of mindfulness. I believe that we all have the capacity for insight, change and growth with the right conditions. I draw on my professional knowledge and skills, and offer a calm, supportive space to reflect, understand your problems and gain new insight and the possibility of change.
