About me
I work with adults, teenagers, couples and other relationships such as friends, family members, work colleagues. My style of working is warm and relational.
You might be feeling anxious, stuck, disconnected from yourself or feel that people in your life are not understanding you. In summary, you may be experiencing difficulty in the present or are trying to process past events. I work with general mental health concerns and life experiences such as grief and stress.
Relationship Therapy - couples and other relationships
I work with couples and other important relationships including family members and friends. We'll look at how you communicate, what gets missed or misunderstood, and how to really listen to one another. I'll help you communicate your needs more clearly, understand each other's perspective and create a relationship where both people feel heard, understood and valued. We can work through difficulties such as trust, conflict, infidelity or feeling disconnected.
Parent and Family Support
Family life can be loving, messy, exhausting and overwhelming. I support parents, guardians and carers who are struggling with the emotional demands, changing relationships and everyday pressures that caring for others can bring. This includes new parents adjusting to a huge life change, as well as those navigating more complex family dynamics including the impact of neurodivergence on family life. Therapy gives you somewhere to think about your own needs, relationships and wellbeing within it all.
Neurodivergence
Neurodivergence is something I understand both personally and professionally, particularly autism, ADHD and dyslexia. You don't have to come to therapy wanting to focus on it. It can be something we explore together if it feels relevant, or simply part of the wider picture of who you are. We can talk about it as much or as little as feels comfortable for you.
Still not sure?
If you're wondering whether we might work well together, you're welcome to send me a message and we can arrange a free 15 minute chat. You don't need to know exactly what you want from therapy before getting in touch.
