We all go though transitions in life, some of which we manage very well and others cause us stress, pain or sadness. When facing these blockages in our path it can sometimes be lonely or overwhelming and your own voice can get lost in the myriad of well meaning advice from friends and family.
I will listen to you and I believe that given time, you will begin to hear your own voice again and gain the confidence to trust yourself in making your own decisions so you may move forward on your journey. I work primarily from a humanistic Integrative approach as this enables me to tailor sessions to suit individual needs and build the therapeutic relationship. I have gained experience of working with a range of emotional, anxiety and trauma issues (including those listed in the ‘what I can help with section’) and I recommend clients book a free 10-15min discussion to briefly establish their initial requirements, before we book your first full paid therapy session. My fees are listed in the charges section.
I sometimes introduce creative techniques alongside talking therapies such as visualisations, art and breathing techniques. All such interventions are only introduced with a clients full agreement and where appropriate to the therapeutic process.
I work 1-2-1 with adults of all ages on either short or long-term, dependent on the therapeutic requirement.
Therapy sessions are are held via online video-calls, which have been shown to be very effective and allow for flexibility (note: we can use the telephone as back-up if the internet is down). Any questions regarding this can be addressed in the initial telephone discussion.
