How I can help you
I offer shorter-term and long-term psychotherapy. The length of your therapy depends on your needs and how you progress through the therapy journey. It is my preference to work with clients on a weekly basis as I believe this provides the best opportunity for a good therapeutic outcome.

Individuals Counselling
Counselling tends to be shorter-term work. Counselling is a supportive process which helps guide you to find short-term solutions to current difficulties or immediate issues that are present in the here and now. Counselling tends to be more appropriate for those with less complex issues.
Counselling can help you to develop awareness and skills for problem management and personal development in daily life through the use of your personal resources. Counselling offers emotional and sometimes practical support to help you to better manage life and adjust to change.
Cost: £50 for a 60-minute individual session
Individuals Psychotherapy
Psychotherapy can be longer-term work. Psychotherapy is more appropriate for those with deeper rooted issues and ongoing patterns of behaviour. In Psychotherapy we will explore how you are shaped by your life experiences, especially those from childhood. We will likely explore past experiences, unconscious processes and repeated patterns of behaviour that might be contributing to present day problems. By addressing the root cause, lasting change and personal growth can occur.

Relationship Therapy
Navigating Relationships can be challenging, especially if we haven't experienced healthy ways of relating. Relationship therapy can highlight issues around communication, attachment patterns, fears around intimacy, betrayal, power, alongside connection and belonging to name a few. People enter into relationship therapy for many reasons, and it may be that family conflict, value differences, difficult life transitions, loss, work-related stress, financial struggles or other issues which are causing problems in your relationship.
Our work will involve exploring and understanding the challenges you are facing in your relationship, whilst having the safety of a therapist to hold whatever might arise between you. In relationship therapy, we can help you to become aware of unhelpful and destructive relational patterns, improve communication and connection with one-another and gain clarity in the relationship. For me, relationship therapy is about supporting the couple to find new ways to relate and connect with one another so that the relationship feels more fulfilling for you both.
The length of relationship therapy is largely dependent on the complexity of issues presented.
