Adults and Couples

Over the years I’ve helped clients work through many different issues, from depression, anxiety, anger and shame to work related stress and relationship difficulties. I have experience working with the trauma of cancer diagnosis and treatment. Also with clients suffering post traumatic stress and all the related issues that can accompany it such as relationship breakdown, suicidal thoughts, depression, social isolation, alcohol and drug misuse.

For couples experiencing relationship difficulties, I have found emotionally focused therapy very helpful in shifting old patterns and allowing each person to feel heard and understood.

Adolescents

I have loved working with teenagers as a school counsellor. Many young people suffer from stress, anxiety, anger and dysfunctional family lives. There’s so much pressure to be good at everything: to have good relationships, lots of friends, be popular and at the same time, pass exams. It can be really hard work and sometimes feel pretty overwhelming. At this difficult stage, feeling heard and understood can be transforming, leading to increased self-awareness, confidence and a sense of calm.
