Philosophy & Vision
Do you need empathy and understanding? If you need kind, confidential understanding so that you can explore what is going on for you, then come and see me so that we can work on ways to change things for you and increase your inner peace and vitality.
If you have tried to change but nothing has worked, then come and talk to me and I will help you to ease the pain and pressure. Doing it alone can be tough.
Background
I am a professionally trained psychotherapist with a history spanning two decades in the personal development field as a therapist and teacher. As a woman, I have had my own demons to work with and I understand the process of growth from the inside.
I promise to support you to find your own way. As a therapist, my intention is to understand you as a unique person on a deep level and to offer you a helping hand to work things out.

Therapy Approach
My psychotherapeutic orientation centres on the fields of intersubjectivity and self-psychology using empathic attunement as the basis for relationship and growth. This means I work with you to really understand how you feel and what you are going through at a very deep level so you can illuminate and transform old patterns of being.
I am also well versed in trauma theory, post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), neuropsychology, developmental theory and attachment theory.
