The Benefits of Psychotherapy
In therapy, my aim is simple: to ensure you feel heard, accepted, and supported—a transformative experience often missing for many. Drawing from Humanistic, Psychodynamic, and CBT theories, I explore root causes of distress, unveiling insights into dysfunctional habits and fostering empowerment. With extensive experience, I offer empathetic guidance through challenges such as anxiety, depression, relationships, personal growth, and trauma. As a Mental Health and Psychological Therapies Lecturer, I've contributed to national developments through research and teaching.
I help people, just like you, to explore the underlying causes of the difficulties. This is one of the most effective ways to ease distress and create lasting change.

About Me

Are you ready to break free of the sting of self-criticism, banish self-doubt, and feel confident and empowered? As an ambitious and driven person, anxiety and low self-esteem can stop you from progressing your life and reaching your goals. Even in a career that you love, recognising your worth and feeling good about yourself can be challenging. Your persistence has brought you far but feeling stuck and unable to reach your potential, can be frustrating. This frustration is a good sign. It signals a readiness for change, an energy that can fuel amazing growth leading to exciting opportunities and profound personal development.

Spring and summer bring a natural energy for growth and renewal, making it the perfect time to shed old fears and to reconnect with your confident, calm, and assertive self. Your anxiety and self-doubt can become the stepping stones to a fulfilling life, where you can socialise and embrace opportunities without the weight of anxiety. Through collaborative exploration, we'll identify and address areas where you're feeling stuck, whether in your career, relationships, or personal growth. Together, we’ll pinpoint roadblocks caused by past experiences or limiting beliefs, enabling you to tackle challenges with clarity and resilience and build positive, authentic relationships.

Let’s explore how your past is impacting your self-worth, creating a path to freedom and empowering habits. We'll unlock your full potential, propelling you toward your goals with renewed confidence. Developing inner calm can quiet self-doubt, enabling you to set healthy boundaries and navigate setbacks with resilience. With specialist knowledge, warmth and empathy, my approach nurtures self-compassion, freeing you from unrealistic expectations. Cultivating assertiveness and recognising your worth can reignite confidence, creating positive change. Finding release from difficult thoughts, emotions, and behaviours, can open the door to genuine fulfilment.

Special Interests

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.

Anxiety, a common human emotion, can derail even the most ambitious person’s plans. When it becomes chronic or overwhelming, it seeps into every aspect of life, leaving you feeling stuck, frustrated, and wrestling with self-doubt and self-criticism. How Psychotherapy Helps: Psychotherapy serves as a powerful tool, acting like a detective for the mind to alleviate anxiety. Together we will explore your childhood experiences and upbringing to gain insights into the origins of these now dysfunctional habits. By addressing the burden of past experiences and dismantling self-imposed expectations, Psychotherapy can free you from your anxiety. Additionally, Psychotherapy acknowledges the enduring impact of trauma, offering a safe space to navigate its aftermath. This healing journey untangles trauma’s threads, rebuilding safety, trust, and resilience. Therapy is like decluttering your mental attic—a liberating process of sorting through and deciding what to keep and what to let go. Navigating thoughts and feelings with newfound understanding enables control, progress and fulfilment. The resulting confidence and assertiveness can be a powerful tool to progress your life and career and achieve your aspirations.
Psychotherapy for low self-esteem and identity problems involves collaboratively exploring past relationships, traumas, and personal narratives to understand your self-worth and the origins of negative views. These negative views impact your behaviour, cause self-sabotage and limit your potential. Developing valuable insights and self awareness, understanding and rebuilding your sense of safety, trust, and resilience can be transformative. Psychotherapy allows you to reshape your self-worth and cultivate self-compassion, serving as a powerful catalyst for change. Collaborative goal setting within therapy addresses specific aspects of low self-esteem, using achievable goals as a valuable tool to challenge negative beliefs, improve self-care, or pursue career aspirations.
When difficulties in relationships leave you feeling isolated and alone, Psychotherapy can provide a valuable space to navigate and understand relationship challenges, fostering long-lasting change. Collaboratively, we’ll delve into your relationship patterns, roles, and personal struggles, not just focusing on the present but examining key life events and childhood experiences that inform who are today. Whether addressing concerns in romantic, family, or professional relationships, psychotherapy enables the development of emotional intelligence and relational skills, fostering empathy and understanding for yourself and others. It supports the identification and breakage of negative patterns, fostering positive change, and cultivating meaningful, resilient relationships. Your therapeutic journey becomes transformative, breaking destructive patterns and enhancing communication, leading to more meaningful connections.
Psychotherapy recognises the lasting impact of trauma and works to help you come to terms with distressing past experiences that left you feeling unsafe, powerless, or vulnerable, affecting your current relationships, self esteem and sense of worth. This healing journey untangles the intricate threads of trauma, developing insight and understanding and rebuilding your sense of safety, trust, and resilience. You’ll develop an understanding of your attachment patterns and gain the tools to set and maintain healthy boundaries, fostering a sense of autonomy and mutual respect in relationship.
