I work with adult clients of all ages and backgrounds, supporting them in addressing challenges across a wide array of presenting issues. These can include, amongst others, anxiety, stress, identity, relationships, self-esteem, childhood trauma, and personal development. Being neurodivergent myself, I welcome clients with all aspects of neurodivergence, and I also work with neurotypical clients across all of the areas just mentioned. Every client is individual, so no one approach suits all clients. I take a bespoke multi-layered approach to working with my clients, so that they can get what they want and need from their therapy.

Research shows that the single most important factor in the effectiveness of therapy is the therapeutic relationhip - how well the therapist and the client connect and relate. I wholeheartedly agree with this, and I encourage people seeking therapy to engage with a number of therapists for initial chats, to select the therapist that works best for them.
Approach I work with clients to help them understand and articulate what they are feeling, thinking and experiencing. We then explore the root causes of these emotions, thoughts and actions to understand what hidden internal processes are driving them. This in and of itself often lessens feelings of distress; but we can also develop strategies to mitigate distress.
