Therapy
Are you struggling and sensing that you might need some support?
Are you experiencing feelings that are difficult to cope with?
Seeking help when we feel isolated or stuck is not only courageous but
it is also enabling us to regain control over our lives.
Sometimes we are feeling lost or can’t cope with certain aspects of our lives.
It can be helpful to just be listened to when we feel overwhelmed.
I provide a safe, confidential and non-judgemental environment in which to share your story. Here you can explore safely what it might be that is troubling you.
Aim
Therapy can help you to explore obstacles and look at difficult feelings.
Growing awareness will enable you to make conscious choices. You will gain a sense of your own agency and will be able to live your life more fully.
What I can help with
Stress • Anxiety • Depression • Bereavement • Loss • Abuse • Trauma • Sexuality • Relationships • Illness • Disability
My work
My model of practise is Integrative Transpersonal, which means that I am able to incorporate different therapeutic approaches into our work, depending very much on your individual needs and what you might require at any given time.
Your needs within our therapeutic relationship are uppermost.
I am interested in your relationships outside of therapy as well as in our own therapeutic relationship and how this might develop.
I work psychodynamically and am curious about your formative years, your ‘family’ dynamics and the affects those might have on your sense of self.
I like to explore imagery and creative expression and might incorporate dreams and imagination to deepen your process of self-exploration.
The transpersonal aspect of the work is providing a soulful element and exploring our sense of interconnectedness with nature and the planet as a whole.
Training, qualifications and experience
I am a qualified Integrative Transpersonal Psychotherapeutic Counsellor with a Diploma from the Re-Vision Training Centre for Counselling and Psychotherapy. I am a registered and accredited member of the UKCP & BACP and follow their ethical framework.
I have worked for the NHS for almost 20 years, interacting with people from different walks of life. I started off as a Paramedic in the London Ambulance Service, where I saw an increasing number of patients struggling with their mental health. This led me to pursue a career in counselling. I initially worked for a Counselling, Psychotherapy and Wellbeing practice in London Bridge before setting up in private practice, first in London and now in Hastings.
