I am an Integrative Therapist and this means that I work with you to bring an approach best suited to your individual needs and circumstances. As we work together, I consider you as a whole being - that includes your emotional, physical and spiritual wellbeing, as well as the community or culture in which you live and were brought up in. I feel that relationship is at the heart of everything - my relationship with you, and yours in the world outside therapy. Through our relationships, we can heal ourselves.
Life has it's ups and downs and I believe that there is no shame in saying that you need help with emotional difficulties. I've had to overcome life crises of my own and these experiences help me to empathise with other people’s struggles.
I work with individuals on an open-ended basis as a psychotherapist or for an agreed time period as a counsellor, with the aim of enabling you to understand yourself, enhance your life and to live it more fully. By looking at our unconscious thoughts, dreams and behaviour, we can gradually develop insight and stop repeating the things that hold us back from being all we can be.
Using an integrative approach, I am happy to work using a number of creative approaches. This does not mean that you have to be an artist! It just means that sometimes, non-talking approaches help us to understand our feelings in more depth. This may include exploring your dreams, using of photographs of yourself or using the breath and body to understand feelings. Engaging with experiences that you have that may be hard to share with others because they are hard to define or your spiritual experiences can also help us to work with the challenges you are having in your life.
