HOW CAN THERAPY HELP?

Therapy can help with a wide range of issues.

I am a Psychodynamic Psychotherapist, trained to work with adults. I have experience helping people with a wide range of mental health difficulties, both in the NHS and privately. 

Some of my clients struggle with feelings of depression or anxiety, some have had traumatic or very difficult life experiences, and some are finding a recent change or loss hard to cope with. Some people come to therapy because they are finding things overwhelming, for others there is a feeling of numbness, and a wish to connect more with themselves and others.

Whether or not you have experience of therapy or know what you are looking for, I can help you think about what is happening and how you might find your way through it.

Individual Therapy

I offer psychotherapy to individual adults, of any age and background. Whether you’ve had therapy before or are unsure what sort of help you need, I can help you think about what might work best for you.

Online Therapy

Many people find coming to in-person sessions a comfortable way to meet their therapist, but for others this may not be best. I can offer online sessions via a secure video conferencing platform if appropriate.

Testimonials

For confidentiality, these client feedback comments are anonymised.

Extremely helpful…given me basic confidence that I can generate trust with other people.

Without this safe space to talk the pressure inside me would have been incredibly damaging. The therapy has kept me and my relationship safe…which has allowed me to try and find my way through a complex situation.

Special thanks to Cat who has made such a difference to my life.

Change is possible

Although growth can be hard work, many people find therapy can help them achieve significant change in themselves, in their relationships, in their lives. Psychodynamic Psychotherapy can address deep-seated problems and open up possibilities, helping people feel more themselves. Change takes times, but it is a privelege to work alongside my clients to reduce distress and increase self esteem and choice.
