Psychotherapy/Counselling
"Helping people come home to themselves"
Whilst Psychotherapy can support with a whole range of life's challenges, the people who seem to most value working with me, tend to be thoughtful, caring and capable people who feel stuck in old patterns. They experience a real sense of reconnecting with themselves, after years of coping, striving or looking after everyone else.
You may:
- Be reflective, and genuinely want to understand yourself and your behaviours and choices more
- Have often spent years looking after others and putting them first .. at the expense of what you need or want
- Feel disconnected from yourself despite functioning well
- Be ready for deeper work rather than quick fixes - real insight and meaningful change
This often shows up as:
-
Anxiety and depression
-
Burnout
-
Relationship difficulties
-
Difficulties dealing with the addiction or mood disorders of others in the family
-
Life transitions
-
Addiction recovery
-
Questions of meaning
If you feel it's time to start gently and curiously remembering who you are beneath the coping strategies, perfectionism, fear and old conditioning, feel free to book in for a no obligation 15 minute chat or book a session here.
What does Psychotherapy look like?
Consultations are confidential and usually up to an hour in length. Sessions are conducted online via Zoom, both nationally and internationally. Frequency of consultations will depend entirely on your needs, and the depth of the issue presented. Work may be short or longer term, again dependent on your needs. I always guarantee to listen to you, to gently challenge you as appropriate, to treat you with care and respect and to work flexibly to help you best meet your needs.
How I work
We all develop ways of coping that make sense at the time. Over the years, however, these patterns can leave us feeling anxious, overwhelmed, disconnected from ourselves, or repeating the same struggles in our relationships and lives.
My role isn't to tell you who you should be. It's to help you understand yourself more deeply—how your experiences, relationships and nervous system have shaped you, and how you can begin to relate to yourself with greater compassion and choice.
Together we'll gently explore the patterns that no longer serve you, reconnect with your strengths, and create space for lasting change. I draw on psychotherapy, systems thinking and embodied approaches to support healing that is not only insightful, but deeply felt and integrated into everyday life.
Ultimately, therapy is about coming home to yourself—so you can live with greater authenticity, resilience and ease.
"I don't just help you understand yourself intellectually ... I help you experience yourself differently.
I don't just explore the past ... I help you become freer in the present.
I don't aim to just support you to reduce any distress .. I aim to help you feel more like yourself."
