As a person-centred psychotherapist, I work with the entirety that is you. You know what hurts and what you need to talk about and I trust that you will bring this to our work when you're ready.
I have:
- helped people find the words that express their feelings
- supported people to make sense of their experience, for example after a diagnosis, a sudden death, a long term illness
- helped individuals work through the deep sadness that comes with losing someone close to them
- helped people work through painful emotions
- sat with people as they explore guilt
- accompanied individuals as they have made sense of their life
I role is to be your partner in this journey. Together we will find a way through this difficult time.
Are you feeling anxious, questioning who you are; why you do the things you do? Are you worried about how your behaviour is impacting your relationships, but you feel you cannot break these patterns?
Are you finding that some childhood/past memories keep popping into your head? Are you questioning how you feel about them and how they may have impacted you?
Are you yearning for love and acceptance, but find you push people away? Are you worried that you if you don't find a way to feel better about yourself that you'll go on hurting not only you but also those you love most?
I understand how very hard it is for you as you struggle to change despite wanting so much to be the best version of you. I understand the shame, guilt, and the terrible feelings of remorse you have when you’ve “fallen off the wagon, done it again, had a blow-out” – you know the phrases that speak to you.
It is possible that as a child you were exposed to problematic behaviours that have led you to bottle up your feelings only to find yourself exploding when you can’t keep them in any longer.
Through my own experience of ADHD, I have learnt that neurodivergence influences how our brains work and respond to experiences, and I bring that understanding to help you unravel any impact of neurodivergence in your own life. It also enables me to be very sensitive to your needs.
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.
