Therapy isn't saying 'there's something wrong with me that needs to be fixed'. Rather, it's an opportunity to bring new awareness to the barriers getting in the way of life working out how you'd like it to be. Through increased self knowledge and taking small steps towards your goals, therapy's potential is to be a life transforming experience - regardless of your expectations or where you're starting from.
My focus is to empower you to explore your inner world, understand emotions, and learn to manage unhelpful and self-sabotaging beliefs & behaviours, so you can cultivate a more fulfilling and authentic life.​ This is less about 'change' and more accurately about becoming more fully 'you'.
Achieving lasting results can take time, but clients also say they have gained important insights & effective new skills in just a few sessions.
How it works
Whether considering therapy for the first time, or if you haven't had a great experience in the past, I encourage you to give it a try. Why? Because your fulfilment & happiness is much too important to leave to chance, or the hope that one day things will be better. Here's how it works:

1. Initial Contact
Online booking is the quickest way to get started as you can see my availability at a glance & choose a time that works for your assessment appointment.
If you have questions about the service, most FAQs are answered here. However, if there's something specific you want to talk through, or just want to check me out first, send me a WhatsApp or request an initial call via the Contact Form

2. Assessment Interview
Your assessment is a one hour consultation where you are invited to talk about the issues you want to address, and the results you'd like to achieve. At the end of the appointment I will offer my thoughts on how I see the difficulties, and how we might address them.​​ At this point you may know if you want to continue with regular sessions or you may want to give it more thought. Either of these is ok.

3. Your Therapy
As part of the therapeutic process, I ask clients to make a verbal commitment to see me for 5 x 1 hour weekly appointments following the assessment. This is usually enough time to get properly acquainted and for you to see some initial benefits. Most of my clients choose to see me for longer than this, but my aim is always for you to achieve your goals quickly and sustainably.
