About me

My practice
I offer a gentle, unjudgemental, compassionate, collaborative, personalised approach. I work to help empower clients, to help them build on their strengths, gain increased calm, self-compassion, clarity and new skills, and discover new possibilities and ways of living.

With my combined training in psychotherapy and philosophy, I also assist people in navigating existential issues inherent to living: fear of death, illness, isolation, uncertainty, change, and loss, as well as discovering increasing purpose and meaning in life.

Areas I work with include:

• Anxiety, depression, and difficult emotions

• Healing your relationship with yourself

• Relationship challenges

• Dealing with the impacts of the pandemic on your life

• Existential issues such as fear of death, illness, isolation, uncertainty, change, and loss

• Lack of purpose and meaning (and fulfilment) in life and life goals

• Building resilience and inspiration

• Insomnia and sleeping difficulties

• Chronic pain and other ‘psychosomatic’ (stress and/or emotionally-related) health issues such as chronic fatigue, fibromyalgia, gastrointestinal issues

• Your relationship with time

• Making decisions

• Experiences of ‘panic’ and ‘obsessive compulsive’ behavioural patterns

• General life challenges

• Issues that can be helped by breathing training
