About me
If you do not see a time/date that you require, please check in with me for alternative slots.
The likelihood is that if you feel drawn to working with me, I have either been through some similar issue or my experience means that I have the capacity to be able to empathise and support you fully with whatever it is that brings you to therapy.
I have worked with numerous agencies and with a wide range of issues to include anxiety, low self esteem, pain management, co-dependency, loss & grief, rejection and abandonment, through to trauma (sexual, racial, developmental, relational, generational), personality disorders, and many others. It is possible to heal.
I tailor my approach to what you bring into the therapeutic space and work creatively and intuitively. I am able to integrate a range of modalities working cognitively with the mind, somatically with the body and psycho dynamically/spiritually incorporating the spirit/soul enabling you to bring your full self into the therapy sessions. Our working together may involve focusing on the alleviation of a specific ailment or condition, or it may involve an exploration of your early years of development to understand how it impacts your present, relationship to Self, nature and the world.
