About me

There might be something specific you need to talk about, or maybe you do not know what it is that is causing you to feel things are not right. I work with relationship difficulties, family issues, anxiety, anger, panic, grief, depression, overwhelm, isolation and loss, among other difficulties. I also have a special interest in dreams and body language and how each offers us precious insight into how we are truly feeling underneath it all.

I work Psychodynamically, which means we’ll explore your early life experiences together—what happened, what you learned about yourself and the world around you, and how these may still be influencing you today, often without you realising it. If not conscious, these beliefs and feelings can become patterns and have a great impact on your relationships and emotions.

If you are interested in finding out more about counselling with me, I’d be so pleased to hear from you. The first step is to arrange an initial session where we will meet to get a sense of one another to see if we are a good enough fit to work together.

"Who looks outside, dreams; who looks inside, awakes." Carl Jung
