About me

Hello, thank you for visiting my profile. Are you constantly anxious and stressed, overwhelmed with anxiety and low mood (depression) are you struggling to maintain relationships and friendships, are you dealing with low-self esteem and regret, have you dealt with trauma in your past that has affected your confidence? Have you recently received an ADHD or Autism diagnosis, or suspect that you are neurodiverse. Then I would love to find out how I can help you. I offer face- face and online Dramatherapy (Creative Psychotherapy & form of Psychological treatment) sessions. I offer therapy with the knowledge and training of Psychotherapy and Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) principles. I believe I can assist you to explore your thoughts, feelings and emotions in a safe and creative way, and help you unpack your behavioural patterns.
