Feeling Lost or Overwhelmed? You Deserve to Feel Better.

Anxiety, depression, or just not yourself? You're not alone. I'm  providing a safe space to explore emotions and develop coping skills. We'll work together to understand your thoughts, feelings, and how they impact you. This self-awareness empowers you to manage emotions and navigate challenges effectively.

Here's how I can help:

Reduce Anxiety & Depression: We'll find the root causes and create personal plans to manage them, fostering calmness.

Improve Relationships: Explore past experiences to build healthier connections.

Build Self-Esteem: Overcome harsh self-criticism and develop self-compassion.

Manage Anger: Learn to identify triggers and express anger assertively.

Break Free from Unhealthy Habits: Explore the root causes and develop healthier coping mechanisms.

We can also navigate grief, understand your past to empower your present, and unveil the roots of anxiety. Therapy can be a mirror to real-life relationships, offering valuable insights to build more fulfilling connections outside of therapy.


My approach is collaborative and integrative:

Instead of a one-size-fits-all approach, I believe in tailoring therapy to your unique needs and goals. Think of it like building a toolbox - we'll gather different tools (techniques) from various therapy approaches to create the perfect set for you.

Here's how we'll work together:

Talking it Out: We'll start by talking about why you're here and what you'd like to achieve. Understanding your perspective helps me create a plan that works for you.

Finding the Right Tools: There are many therapy approaches, like:

Understanding Your Past: We can explore how your past experiences might be affecting your present.

Challenging Negative Thoughts: If negative thoughts are causing issues, we can learn ways to challenge them and develop more positive thinking.

Focusing on the Present: Techniques like meditation can help you stay present and manage stress better.

Building Your Toolbox: We'll choose techniques from different approaches to create a personalised plan for you.

Working Together: Sometimes I might challenge your perspective to help you grow. This is always done with your best interests in mind. Open communication and working together are key!

A Safe Space: Therapy is a safe place to be yourself, free from judgment. I'll listen actively and support you throughout your journey.

By exploring how you interact with me in therapy, we can gain insights into how you interact with others outside of therapy, ultimately helping you build stronger relationships.
