Psychotherapy & Counselling

Where you change what isn’t working for you and attend to traumas - to enjoy the life you live.

A confidential and non-judgmental space

I believe everyone is unique and I’m fully committed to understanding you and what you bring to your sessions.

What is “Psychotherapy & Counselling”?

 
 

Therapy is time set aside by you and the therapist to look at what has brought you to therapy. This might include talking about life events (past and present), feelings, emotions, relationships, ways of thinking and patterns of behaviour.

The therapist will do their best to help you to look at your issues, and to identify the right course of action for you, either to help you resolve your difficulties or help you find ways of coping. Talking about these things may take time, and will not necessarily all be included in one session.

Therapy and counselling are perfect for you if you feel it’s time to get some help to better cope with your own anxiety, stress, or depression. Or if you’re looking to work with someone who can support you in changing behaviours that aren’t serving you anymore - I can help you. Together , we address the negative thinking patterns and beliefs that drive your behaviours and start to break the circle. I help you grow in awareness of your patterns and to create new paths to replace what you’ve been working hard to change.
