Biography


I am a qualified psychodynamic psychotherapist (BACP registered) offering individual on line and telephone counselling to adults, the work can be short term or on-going.
My way of working involves thinking about the link between past and present experiences, such as your relationships or how you respond to situations in your life.There could be patterns of behaviour that you have become stuck in and unaware of. There may be something specific that you are struggling with or a general feeling of unhappiness where feelings and thoughts are troubling you and have become overwhelming. I offer a non-judgemental space where we can explore whatever you bring together, at your own pace and in a way which feels safe.
Having this space to recognise and make sense of your experiences can lead to positive change, more freedom and self awareness.

Approach to treatment

I work using a psychodynamic approach which means thinking about earlier experiences and how these experiences can influence a person's relationships and how they respond to situations in their life. I offer a space which is non-judgemental and safe, encouraging exploration and reflection. I believe the relationship between the therapist and the client is the most important as it is through this relationship that the client can feel safe enough to learn about themselves at a much deeper level.
