Lucy Shaw
Psychodynamic psychotherapistAbout Me
I understand it can be hard to approach therapy for the first time, or maybe you are currently in need of support during an uncertain time or are feeling distressed. It can feel difficult knowing where to start. We would work together to explore your feelings, thoughts and behaviours so you can better understand yourself and others. Psychodynamic Psychotherapy can support you and give you understanding about your emotional responses to life events and skills to cope in times of stress. I offer a safe and confidential space, where you can begin to make sense of your feelings and to identify how you would like to move forward.
I work with a wide range of issues some of which include: depression, trauma, anger, anxiety, stress, bereavement, illness, motherhood, women’s health, loss, sexual difficulties, sexual identity and relationship conflict. I have a particular interest and specialism in women’s health with extensive knowledge of the condition Endometriosis.
We would start with an initial consultation where I can find out more about what you are wanting from therapy, what is troubling you now as well as to gain a wider picture of your life. What goes on in your early life can help inform what is happening now. It also allows you to experience what it feels like to be in therapy if you haven't had therapy before.
