About psychotherapy
Psychotherapy
Psychotherapy offers a safe and confidential space to explore any issues or areas you’d like to discuss. Many people turn to psychotherapy when they are unhappy with elements of their current situation that they may have been aware of for some time: be it certain patterns of behaviour that are difficult, or if there is something less tangible - a more general sense of wanting to change. It is also an excellent opportunity to look at ways to excel, how to know yourself better to bring more of your true self into your life.
Psychotherapy is usually a more long-term activity, and can be used to explore areas of emotional or behavioural difficulty. I have worked with people over a longer-term to look at issues such as grief, self-esteem, anxiety and stress, identity and purpose, eating disorders, work issues and family problems. I believe psychotherapy is a way to work together to gain a deeper understanding about the conscious personality and to raise awareness of unconscious feelings and the impact they have. Sometimes the work can feel uncomfortable but also very rewarding, and I offer a safe space for pschotherapeutic counselling where these feelings can be expressed without shame or fear. We can explore difficult feelings with curiosty to consider new, more satisfactory, experiences.
