Welcome
You may have reached a point where things feel difficult to manage on your own.
Perhaps you are feeling anxious, low, lonely or overwhelmed. You may be struggling with self-doubt, finding it hard to make decisions, or feeling stuck in a relationship, at work or in your wider life. Sometimes these difficulties have been present for a long time. At other times, something happens that makes them feel more immediate or harder to ignore.
Whatever has brought you here, you do not have to make sense of it all before asking for support.
Psychotherapy offers a space where you can talk openly about what is happening, at your own pace, and without having to pretend that everything is fine. Together, we can begin to understand not only what you are feeling now, but also whether earlier experiences or relationship patterns may be affecting the way you see yourself and relate to other people.
My approach is relational and integrative with psychodynamic thinking at its centre. This means I am interested in the ways our relationships can shape us — including the relationship we develop with one another in therapy. We may gently explore patterns that have become familiar, even when they leave you feeling hurt, anxious, unseen or disconnected. Developing a deeper understanding of these patterns can create more choice in how you respond and how you live your life.
I offer a compassionate, thoughtful and non-judgemental space. You will not be told what to do or be expected to have all the answers. My role is to listen carefully, think with you and support you as you make sense of your experiences.
I work with adults experiencing difficulties including:
-
anxiety, depression and low mood
-
loneliness, shame and persistent self-criticism
-
people-pleasing, perfectionism and feelings of inadequacy
-
the effects of trauma or painful life experiences
-
difficulties with trust, closeness, boundaries or communication
-
feeling unseen, unvalued or disconnected in relationships
-
feeling stuck in an unfulfilling career, routine or relationship
-
difficulties adjusting to change, loss or major life transitions
-
a wish to understand yourself more deeply and create a more fulfilling life
I offer both short-term and longer-term psychotherapy, depending on your needs and what we agree would be most helpful. We can discuss this together during an initial consultation.
If you are considering therapy, you are welcome to get in touch. You do not need to know exactly what to say. A brief message about what has brought you here is enough, and we can arrange an initial conversation to see whether working together feels right for you.
I offer in-person sessions in Haslemere, Surrey, and online for clients across the UK.
