Psychotherapy offers a unique opportunity to explore any difficulties you might be experiencing in a safe and confidential space.
Psychotherapy allows for a deep exploration of life themes, and a chance to be understood and to understand yourself more clearly. There are many reasons why someone might seek the support of a psychotherapist: depression, anxiety, relationship problems etc. Some people come to examine their internal life more closely, to try to gain insight into the meaning of their moods and actions, and reflect upon behavioural patterns that seem to repeat throughout life.
Whether you need support with more acute feelings that seem overwhelming, or whether you are just interested in what makes you tick, psychotherapy could help.

What sort of therapist am I?
I offer caring yet focused and informed attention, facilitating a joint process that will help you find your own answers, in your own words. I am present and engaged, entering into an exploration and dialogue with you about your experiences and feelings. Within this supportive atmosphere, we work together to reach understanding and clarity about your current circumstances.
My training is integrative, meaning that I draw from a number of different important theories. My practice is firmly based upon humanistic principles, which emphasise each individual’s innate human potential and their capacity for self-determination. I acknowledge and work with unconscious processes and reflect on how past experiences affect the present. I have a keen interest in relational psychotherapy and intersubjectivity theory, which in short means I work hard to understand my client’s subjectivity as one that is unique in the world and present in relationship with me. My view is that all these schools of thought have much to offer, but I would be against following any singular theory dogmatically.
