About me
Finding Connection in an Uncertain World
Group Psychotherapy
Are you longing for deeper, more meaningful connection?
Many people come to therapy feeling isolated, disconnected, or stuck in familiar patterns that are difficult to change. Modern dating can be exhausting, relationships can feel hard to sustain, and the pressures of everyday life can leave us feeling alone with our struggles.
Group psychotherapy offers a confidential and supportive space where you can meet others face to face and explore your experiences together. Rather than navigating life's challenges in isolation, group therapy creates an opportunity to connect with others, deepen self-understanding, and develop new ways of relating.
In the group you can:
• Explore relationship patterns and better understand how you connect with others.
• Become more aware of yourself and communicate more openly and authentically.
• Bring fears, loneliness, uncertainty, burnout, or other challenges into a supportive environment.
• Learn from the experiences and perspectives of others.
• Experience a sense of connection and belonging that can be difficult to find elsewhere.
I believe that meaningful change often happens in relationship with others. Group therapy can be a powerful way to feel seen, understood, and less alone.
Taking the First Step
Joining a therapy group can feel like a big step. To help you decide whether the group is right for you, I offer a free one-to-one consultation. This gives us an opportunity to talk about what brings you to the group, answer any questions you may have, and think together about whether this would be a good fit for you.

The fee for the group is £150 per month.
Group members are asked to commit to attending regularly for a minimum of 35 sessions per year, as consistency helps create safety, trust, and meaningful relationships within the group.

UKCP standards cover the range of different psychotherapies. Registration is obtained by training or accrediting with one of its member organisations, or by holding a European Certificate in Psychotherapy. Accredited by the Professional Standards Authority.
