In-person, online and telephone counselling available. I specialise in all issues related to personal development, career, relationships, life transitions and any of the stuff that is keeping you from living your best life. A psychotherapist is trained to listen to their client and to understand their needs. The relationship built between the therapist and client is an incredibly positive one; it is based on a solid foundation of honesty, trust and acceptance with the mutual aim of the client reaching a better, healthier level of happiness and contentment. I work with issues such as:
• Relationship difficulties
• Career matters
• Sexuality
• Confidence and Self Esteem
• Grief and loss
• Stress
• Bereavement
I am an Integrative Therapist. This means that I prefer to use various therapeutic approaches when working with my clients, rather than limiting myself to just one. Here is a list of the different therapeutic approaches I utilise during my sessions:
Psychoanalytical Therapy (Exploration of our past. Often the focus is on the formative years of childhood and upbringing. Understanding the impact it has on our current feelings and actions)
Person Centred Therapy (Allows the client to be the catalyst for their own healing and changes. The therapist provides guidance for the client to discover solutions from within themselves)
Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (Recognising faulty or negative patterns of behaviour and enabling the client to replace them with healthier and more successful behaviours)
Psychodynamic Therapy (Focuses on unconscious feelings and defence mechanisms such as denial, repression and resistance. The client learns to recognise, understand and process these feelings)
Each therapy session lasts for 60 minutes. The content and the pace of every session is entirely flexible and will reflect your mood, motivation and circumstances. During a session I like a more relaxed approach where we simply talk about pressing issues and see where our conversation takes us.
