Individual Therapy
Life can bring challenges of many kinds and it is good to know that there is support around when you need it. You may be struggling with a relationship, or a particular aspect of your life or you may be experiencing low mood, anxiety or other mental health difficulties.
I offer individual psychotherapy to people of all ages and social identities. My therapeutic approach is informed by relational models and other psychological modalities. I strive to foster a collaborative therapeutic relationship and aim to offer a safe space for you to reflect on your life experiences, to re-align yourself with your values in life and to develop the strategies and coping skills to help you to move your life in the direction that is most meaningful for you.
Some of the issues I have experience working with include:
- Relationship difficulties: family conflict, couple disharmony, parenting difficulties, friendship strains, work problems.
- Life and family transitions: loss and bereavement, birth of a child, couple separation or divorce, new family formations, moving to independent living or cohabiting, aging.
- Intense and difficult emotions or experiences: sadness, anger, bullying, discrimination, child aggression, excessive Internet and gaming behaviour, self-harm, depression, anxiety, trauma.
- Issues around identity and affiliation groups: including race and ethnicity, culture, sexual orientation, gender identity questioning, faith and religion, parenthood, marital status, appearance, age and maturation, ability/disability, educational and professional choices.
- Serious mental health problems or life-long conditions: eating disorders, psychosis, learning difficulties, ADHD, autism, living with a physical illness.
- Eating Disorders and Neurodiversity: both areas I have extended experience and training.
If you are not sure if I can help you with your specific problem and want to discuss it further, get in touch, I offer a 30-minute initial consultation at no charge.
