Therapy for me encompasses three key values: connecting with people, working creatively, and discussing life philosophically. 

​

For me therapy is not about understanding whats wrong with you or how to fix your life. It's a philosophical and spiritual journey to help you better understand how to bring your life back into homeostasis. 

​

My therapeutic style is based on making the line between who I am as a person and who I am as a therapist as thin as possible. In this way I aim to create a therapeutic process connecting on a person-person level.

​

I am not a silent aloof professional nodding and making soothing noises. I see myself as a therapist who is a collaborator; a present, active and engaged participant in your process. A person with my own life experience and who has been through my own therapeutic journey. 

​​

I came to therapy through my own trauma, coping mechanisms and journey of self-acceptance. I know first hand how difficult it can be to take that first step. When we feel that we 'should' be able to cope and manage by ourselves. Often denying or minimising our feelings and experiences.

 

Often people come to therapy thinking that there is something 'wrong' with them or are looking for therapy to 'cure' them. But this isn't how I believe therapy works. Therapy isn't about how we can change who we are but how we can come to accept who we are and understand what we experience.

​​​

Together we will work to bring greater self-awareness to what is troubling you and what aspects of your life you are wanting to address and change. Offering my own thoughts, feelings and observations to help make connections between present difficulties and past experiences.
