I support individuals and couples who are struggling with difficulties in their lives and relationships. I’m warm, thoughtful, calm and curious, and will offer you space and safety to talk.
My approach is integrative, humanistic, relational and mindfulness-based. I don’t use a couch, make diagnoses (or make assumptions if you already have one), and I won’t judge you or tell you what to do. I’ll welcome you whatever your gender identification, ethnicity, sexuality, faith, cultural background or relationship structure.
I arrange a 50 minute initial meeting (60 minutes for couples) with all potential clients, to give space to hear what is bringing you now, and for us to explore how we might work together. In ongoing sessions we’ll listen to what feels painful or overwhelming, and attend to it. We’ll explore how you meet difficulties in your life and relationships, look at whether other responses might feel more helpful. Sometimes talking about past events, patterns and relationships will help us understand the present. As sessions continue, you may have more access to a sense of well-being, individually or as a couple, with new and wider dialogues becoming available.
