Deciding to prioritise one’s own mental wellbeing is one of the most rewarding acts of self-kindness an individual can perform - and choosing to do so via the process of therapy and a supportive therapeutic relationship can be a significant step towards this goal.
I am a qualified Integrative Psychotherapist and typically work with adults who are experiencing low-mood, anxiety, depression low self-esteem, struggling with ongoing health or relationship issues, or trying to process a traumatic past. Sometimes clients simply feel stuck and need a safe space to explore and process what is happening. I provide a safe confidential non-judgemental space for you to express or reflect on whatever issues have brought you to me and together we can navigate a way forward. No two clients are alike, and therapy cannot offer all the answers but often clients find that engaging in a dynamic and supportive therapeutic relationship can have a profound effect on emotional wellbeing.
My training draws on elements of relational psychodynamic, existential, and humanistic approaches. This allows me to tailor an approach suitable to your individual needs. Working psychodynamically involves looking at how relationships from the past, and present, may be informing your identity, relationships, and internal world. Existential explorations may illuminate how you make life choices and create meaning or make decisions in an uncertain world.
I work relationally with my clients and believe the therapeutic relationship to be a powerful force for insight, awareness and ultimately change. Important connections and new perspectives can be achieved within the bounds of a dynamic therapeutic relationship and many clients find this hugely helpful.
At present I work solely out of The Stress Project with adults of all ages on an open-ended basis or for an agreed time.
I have an MA in Psychotherapy and Counselling from the Regent’s School of Psychotherapy and Psychology and am a registered member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP) and abide by their code of ethics.
