About me and my therapy practice
If you're struggling in your relationship right now, or wanting to explore why you get stuck in the unhealthy or unhelpful patterns that do not serve you anymore, therapy can help. It can be a huge step to come to therapy for the first time, and I understand how intimidating and exposing this can feel; we all need help sometimes and I will do my best to make you feel at ease in your first session.
I specialise in Couples therapy, and work with issues such as;
- Communication
- Unhelpful cycles
- Unresolved childhood trauma
- Depression and anxiety
- Conflict or unsolvable arguments
- Decisions around whether to have children
- Affairs and infidelity
- Sexual issues within the relationship
Often, clients want to explore who they are and discover how their childhood has shaped who they are now; I welcome this exploratory work, and have experience with existential problems, sense of self, relationship issues, exploring queerness, trauma, depression and anxiety. At the moment I specialise working with students and adults with ADHD, but have worked with adults from all backgrounds, ages and situations over the past few years.
I also specialise working with highly sensitive people who have trouble managing and regulating their emotions, and find it difficult being understood by others who view the world differently. I also help clients realise their own autonomy in an understanding, validating and empathic way. Therapy is your space in which to explore who you are in a safe, non-judgemental, shame-free environment.
Practice description
I work in a relational and exploratory way - encouraging your autonomy by coming up with a plan together and accessing the resources that you already have within you.
I'm incredibly passionate about what I do - you can depend on me to be constantly growing and learning about this fascinating field in which to better help you.
My first session
The first session for couples will be a 90 minute assessment which has a flat rate of £100, where I will take down details of past events, reasons and goals for therapy, and background details. This will be the only session where I take notes. The other sessions will be 50 minutes long and will be at the normal rate of £80 per therapeutic hour (50 minutes).
For individuals sessions are £75 an hour and the assessment session will be 50 minutes.
