What brings you here?
Sometimes we can feel broken and wonder “is there something wrong with me?” It might be the way others treat you or how you think about and treat yourself that has brought you here. Maybe you would like to change your interactions with partners, family, friends, or work colleagues, and just figure out reasonable boundaries.
It could be as obvious as unsatisfying relationships and jobs or as subtle as the feeling of inadequacy that has followed you throughout life. For some, you may feel fairly successful and your life ticks a lot of the boxes but you don't feel as happy as you hoped you would. Over time, this can lead to a depletion of energy, a soul-level exhaustion where we're not really fully living but just getting through the day. |
Discover
During our time together, we learn about what it is that you're experiencing that is causing you distress or concern. I view the therapeutic experience as an alliance, where together we explore your stories, emotions, thought and behaviour patterns, and where the roots of your issues may stem from.

Reflect
I offer judgement-free therapy that aims to inspire and foster self-connection. A place where you can talk openly, have room to express yourself, untangle your thoughts and build insight. You can also learn tools to add to your toolbox of strategies to manage life situations as they arise.

Grow
Therapy helps to develop self-awareness and increase your sense of well-being through understanding your emotions and unconscious patterns that shape your actions. It also helps to better understand the impact past experiences have on you as you relate to other people and your life.

Self-connection
Going through difficult times, and the normal human experiences of struggling and suffering, happens for all of us. However, when we don't attend to stresses and traumas, the unintended consequences of this, especially over time, can lead to us lacking vitality and living on autopilot.
The truth is that most of us weren’t trained in the practices of self-attunement and befriending ourselves. The foundation of our inner work is to bring compassionate and spacious awareness to our full experience. It's to connect with the unstoppable capacity of the human spirit, to transform attachment wounding and relational trauma, and to become a true friend to ourselves. |
One of the most profound determinants of how we experience our lives is how we feel about ourselves - our sense of self-worth, and how we attend to ourselves - self-care. And so, the most important relationship we can develop in life is the one we have with ourselves. But, it is often the one we ignore most.
In a trusting, therapeutic relationship, between you and your therapist, the healing process can unfold. Offering you space for self-exploration in which to better understand yourself, your patterns, and your inner world. Developing a healthier connection to yourself leads to healthier connections with others and with life. |
