Therapy with me
I work with adults experiencing anxiety, low mood, relationship difficulties, loss, and life transitions; and I have a particular interest in fertility challenges, pregnancy or baby loss, pre- and postnatal difficulties, matrescence, and the emotional complexities of becoming – or deciding whether to become – a parent.
It is likely that you’ll find therapy to be different from any space or relationship you’ve been in before.
It offers something that many of us rarely experience in everyday life.
You’ll find not only a supportive relationship, but potentially a reparative one too
Many people have never experienced being listened to with genuine curiosity, acceptance and without judgement. Feeling truly heard and understood can, in itself, be deeply healing.
It’s also a chance to connect the dots
Sometimes we know something isn't working, but we're not sure why. Therapy can help you connect the dots between your past experiences, your early relationships, and the way you think, behave, feel and relate to others today. As those connections become clearer, you can begin to understand yourself with greater compassion.
Therapy also creates the opportunity to choose something different …
Because my work is grounded in Transactional Analysis, I'm interested in the patterns we develop over the course of our lives. Many of these ways of thinking, feeling and relating began as creative adaptations to our early experiences. While they may once have helped us, they don't always continue to serve us. Therapy offers the opportunity to decide which patterns you want to keep - and which no longer fit the person you are today.
