Everyone’s journey is different. My role is to offer you a therapeutic relationship where you feel safe to explore what matters most to you. If you are facing difficulties, you’re not alone. I offer support with a range of experiences, including:

• Anxiety and depression.

• Relationship issues and challenges within families.

• Low self-esteem and low confidence.

• Exploration related to a sense of disconnection or emptiness despite an outwardly successful or supported life.

• Historic or current emotional, physical and/or sexual abuse, including gaslighting, coercive relationships, domestic abuse and/or violence.

• Trauma.

• Self-harm and suicidal thoughts.

• Bereavement and loss.

What is person-centred therapy? A warm and supportive space where you can explore your thoughts and feelings openly and safely. An alternative to giving advice or solutions, I’ll support you reconnect with your own internal resources. You set the pace in exploring what feels most important to you. Being deeply heard without judgement or labels but with compassion and empathy helps you to gain clarity and understanding.

How experiential therapy works - it goes beyond just talking. By actively engaging with how emotions show up in your body - through improving awareness, imagery or other creative approaches - you can access deeper feelings and insight. This type of therapy encourages self-discovery through experience, allowing you to process emotions in a way that feels real and transformative.

What you might expect from trauma-informed therapy - we work gently, at your pace, understanding how your past experiences might make you feel stuck in certain patterns, emotions or relationships. Understanding how these shape emotions and relationships, we can work together to break through old patterns and process emotions to create meaningful change.

Therapy is a collaborative process, and while person-centred and experiential psychotherapy will be at the heart of our work, we can also draw on other approaches relevant to your experiences. For example, exploring how past experiences shape current relationships might involve insights from attachment theory or internal family systems. If you’re navigating change, solution-focused techniques may offer a helpful perspective. Together, we can integrate different approaches in a way that ensures therapy feels meaningful and relevant to you.

Therapy can support you to…

• Feel more connected to your emotions in a deeper way.

• Develop strategies to manage anxiety and overwhelm.

• Align your thoughts, feelings, and body for improved balance.

• Improve communication and confidence in expressing your needs.

• Build more meaningful and fulfilling relationships.

• Navigate social situations with greater ease.

If this approach resonates with you, I invite you to reach out. Together we can explore what feels right for you
