Online and In-Person Counseling

I specialise in providing both online and in-person counselling services, recognising that each client has unique preferences and circumstances. Whether you prefer the convenience of virtual sessions from the comfort of your own home or the personal connection that comes with face-to-face interaction, I am committed to supporting you on your journey towards healing and growth. My aim is to create a flexible and accessible therapeutic experience that meets your individual needs. Through both formats, I strive to foster a safe and nurturing environment where you can explore your thoughts and feelings, develop coping strategies, and work towards achieving your personal goals. Regardless of the medium you choose, my dedication to your well-being remains unwavering.

Couples Counselling

In my approach to couples counselling, I prioritise creating a safe and supportive environment where both partners feel heard and validated. I believe that open communication is the cornerstone of any healthy relationship, so I encourage each individual to express their thoughts and feelings honestly while also fostering active listening skills. I utilise various therapeutic techniques tailored to the unique dynamics of the couple, including cognitive-behavioural strategies and emotion-focused therapy. My goal is to help couples identify and navigate their conflicts, strengthen their emotional connection, and develop practical tools for resolving issues collaboratively. By guiding them through this process, I aim to empower couples to build a more fulfilling and resilient partnership.

Psychotherapy

Psychotherapy forms the core of my practice, offering a safe and confidential space where clients can freely explore their thoughts, feelings, and experiences without fear of judgment. I understand that each individual is unique, which is why I integrate a variety of therapeutic modalities to create a personalised treatment plan that aligns with each client's specific needs and goals. This integrative approach allows me to draw on techniques from cognitive-behavioural therapy, psychodynamic therapy, and humanistic approaches, among others. By adapting my methods to suit the individual, I aim to foster deeper self-awareness, promote healing, and empower clients to navigate their challenges more effectively. Ultimately, my goal is to support clients in their journey towards personal growth and emotional well-being.

Therapeutic Approach

My therapeutic approach is deeply rooted in empathy, collaboration, and a non-judgmental attitude. I firmly believe that the foundation of effective therapy lies in creating a supportive and empowering environment where clients feel genuinely heard, understood, and respected. This safe space allows individuals to explore their thoughts and emotions freely, including unconscious patterns and past experiences that may be influencing their current behaviours and relationships. I am dedicated to partnering with you as we navigate the complexities of life’s challenges together. By working collaboratively, we can uncover underlying issues that may be affecting your well-being, helping you to gain insight into your feelings and motivations. My focus is on promoting holistic well-being, which encompasses not only emotional health but also mental and physical aspects of your life. Together, we will embark on a journey towards greater self-awareness and resilience, empowering you to lead a more balanced and fulfilling life while fostering deeper connections with yourself and others.

​

As a psychoanalytically trained psychotherapist, I approach each client with a deep commitment to attentive listening and a profound respect for their individuality. I understand that every person brings a unique set of experiences, emotions, and perspectives to the therapeutic space. My role is to create an environment where you feel safe to express your thoughts and feelings openly, allowing us to explore the complexities of your inner world together.I listen intently, not only to the words you say but also to the underlying emotions and themes that may emerge during our sessions. This careful attention helps me to understand the nuances of your experiences and the unconscious patterns that may be influencing your behaviour and relationships. By treating each person as an individual, I tailor my approach to meet your specific needs and goals, recognising that what works for one person may not resonate with another.Through this process, I aim to foster a strong therapeutic alliance built on trust and empathy, enabling you to delve deeper into your thoughts and feelings. Together, we will explore the connections between your past experiences and present challenges, facilitating insight and personal growth. My ultimate goal is to empower you on your journey towards self-discovery and healing, helping you to navigate life's complexities with greater clarity and resilience.
