About me
Counselling and psychotherapy services for adults and couples in a safe and confidential environment in the heart of Rutland.
I endeavour to help people improve the quality of the life they lead by helping them to understand what has made them who they are today and how to recognise and break damaging repeating patterns of behaviour in relationships. Working with attachment issues and developmental issues from childhood that present in certain ways in adult relationships.
Experienced in working with childhood and adult trauma including complex trauma and dissociation, which can be extremely debilitating in adult relationships. Personality adaptations formed from disrupted childhoods cause repeating patterns of behaviour in adulthood that can hinder and damage relationships. These can be helped through long term therapy to help you live a more fulfilled life.
I am trained as an Emotionally Focused Couples Therapist and work extensively with couples to help them understand the difficulties in their relationship's, where they may come from and how to overcome them to achieve a more fulfilling life together. Sometimes couples work can be finding a way to separate amicably and maintain a good enough relationship to manage children when living apart.
