How I Can Help

I believe that you have the answers within yourself.

Together we can explore the things you are struggling with, however difficult and upsetting they may be. Working in this way with someone else is very powerful and can make a real difference.  The things I can help with include, but are not limited to:

• anxiety and stress
• depression or general unhappiness
• feeling bad about yourself or lack of confidence
• relationship difficulties
• loss and grief
• addiction, eating disorders and obsessional behaviour
• better understanding of who you are
• past and present trauma

I provide a safe, comfortable and confidential environment for us to explore your world as you experience it.  We will work together for as long as you feel you want or need to.

Because of the way I work, I can help with:

• the overwhelming feelings you may have due to life events such as relationship break ups, bereavement, or illness.
• emotions that don’t make sense to you, for example, feeling anxious when something ‘happy’ happens like a new relationship or moving house
• when you don’t feel anything at all and are left confused and shut down

What happens next

Once you get in touch, we’ll arrange a telephone consultation which will be free of charge and will help you decide if my approach is right for you. We’ll then meet for our first session via video or telephone.  We will explore how we will work together going forward. Normally we would meet on a weekly basis. Sessions last for 60 minutes and are at the same, mutually agreed time.

I understand that people have very busy lives and can offer early morning, evening and weekend sessions as well as sessions during the working week.
