AnnouncementPsychotherapy and Counselling
Life can feel overwhelming at times and talking with an experienced psychotherapist can help you to feel heard and understood. I work to build a safe relationship in which we can compassionately explore what brought you to therapy. The therapy process also increases self-awareness, self-acceptance, and genuine self-esteem.
How I can help:
If you are experiencing any of the following, I can help:
- grief and loss
- depression
- anxiety and overwhelm
- work challenges and career changes
- life transitions
- difficulty asserting yourself
- loneliness
- feeling inadequate or stuck
- trauma
- relationship difficulties (professional and personal)
I work with adult individuals (20+) of varied backgrounds and cultures.
Professional Supervision
I offer reflective practice/supervision for professionals wanting ongoing confidential support. Professional reflective practice can help to:
- improve/maintain wellbeing at work
- increase awareness of self, others, and group/organisation dynamics
- gain confidence solving problems/critical thinking
- improve workplace relationships
- enhance leadership skills
In addition to my therapeutic listening skills, I bring to professional supervision my coaching, facilitation and leadership development skills and experience from my first career.
FAQs
Background and Experience
- I have been working as a psychotherapist and counsellor in private practice for over ten years. I primarily work with people wanting/needing a long term stable psychotherapy relationship to bring about sustained therapeutic growth. I also see people for short-term counselling navigating 'bumps in the road' of life.
- My first career was in Organisational Capability and Development, and many of the skills developed and knowledge I gained, are useful in my work as a therapist. I changed careers because my curiosity and my own inner struggles propelled me to delve deeper into the human psyche (and because I love learning!). After training in a variety of therapeutic approaches, I was drawn to train in psychodynamic psychotherapy - a relational depth process that enables lasting positive change.
