Why Therapy

People generally enter therapy because they are unhappy with the quality of their life. As your therapist, I can help you to explore in a compassionate and respectful way, traumatic life experiences which in some cases, may go back to early childhood years.

Alternatively, you may have experienced more recent difficulties which have impacted negatively on your sense of well being. The consequences are often very distressing and may cause deep suffering with a sense of confusion in your life.Which you may notice in your patterns of thinking ,feeling or changes in your behaviour,perhaps by withdrawing or becoming more isolated.   

I can offer you a confidential and safe place to meet in which you will be heard, accepted and understood where you can be supported in  moving through your difficulties towards a healthier life.

Couples Counselling

Where an issue is profoundly affecting the well being of a relationship, couple counselling can be helpful. In these sessions we explore how the behaviour, beliefs, history and ideas of each partner may impact upon the other, with the objective of increased mutual understanding.

Frequently 'unfinished business' from within each partners childhood and family of origin often obscures and distorts their perception of the other.

While couples counselling can help a relationship, it is also often a powerful and direct path to increased self understanding.
