I am guided by the latest neurobiological research exploring the mind-body connection, attachment theory, as well as relational models that offer the potential for awareness, healing, authentic living and self-empowerment. Through using a range of techniques, I work creatively to meet my clients needs, which in turn allows them to heal past patterns, develop a deeper understanding of themselves, and create the life that they want.

I am particularly interested in supporting individuals who have faced difficult pasts but are determined and motivated to thrive in the future, both for themselves and those around them. These individuals may be experiencing stress, grief, or relational challenges, and I am passionate about helping them navigate these struggles to create a more positive, fulfilling future. My focus is on empowering people to heal, grow, and develop resilience, so they can build meaningful relationships, find purpose, and achieve well-being, ultimately transforming their lives and the lives of those they care about.

I am most interested in the emotional and spiritual aspects of the human journey. That said, the physical and mental aspects are so important, too. My fascination has always been more geared towards the emotional and spiritual because I feel that these aspects are two large sources of misunderstanding and miscommunication in our world. They are also two sources of the most profound healing that we have been given.

Something I've always felt, is that people are far more capable than we give ourselves credit. Part of my healing journey involved the frustration of overcomplicating things which were far simpler than I wanted to believe. Because if they were simple, then why wasn't I able to do them? I realised we don't need more personal trainers. We already know we need to move more, and eat more wholefoods, it's really no secret these days. What we need, is help to implement the self-care strategies we already know we need. So, I decided to become a personal trainer for the mind instead... Now drop and give me ten things you're grateful for!! In all seriousness, in Psychotherapy we can gently remove the obstacles between ourselves and the change we wish to see in our lives. Emphasis on 'gently' and importantly, 'at our own pace'.

I am interested in many aspects of the human journey including those aspects of ourselves which are hidden from us and holding us back from being the best version of ourselves. My interest is growing as I gain more experience.

I am particularly interested in why we do the things we do, think the thoughts we think, and feel the way we do. Through each study area I embark on there are different theories of what causes us to be the way we are. I am enjoying this exploration, complemented by journeying with my clients as they do just this, in understanding themselves. I am partial to strengths based approaches, and remembering and focusing on what works for us as an individual, and building the inner resources from this basis.

I consider a person as a whole. Every person is unique with own special characteristics and life experiences. Your every experience, every situation, and every moment can make a significant impact to your life. In the same way, right here, right now, your change can start to take place and if that is what you would like for yourself, then I am interested in working with you! Your uniqueness as an individual and your life experiences cannot be measured, and every aspect of what makes 'you' the person you are is what is important to me! and this is what we will base as the start of our work together ..

My own experience of anxiety and depression informs my interest in helping others. My psychotherapeutic training has been strongly trauma-informed, and trauma remains fascinating for me, especially insofar as it reveals so much about the 'ordinary' functioning of the human mind. Other interests include the psychological underpinnings of autoimmune disease, and so I hope to explore interconnections between an integrative approach to psychotherapy and the exciting research being done in the field of psychoneuroimmunology.

Our very first relationships with our parents help to shape how we feel about ourselves, how we feel and experience others and how we feel and experience the world. If we get stuck in these fractured relationships and ensuing emotions, it's really hard for us to feel a strong sense of self. We can get stuck in avoidance/repression or attachment, with negative consequences on our psycho-emotional and physical health. If we don't resolve this it holds us back in our evolution and trully discovering the truth of what it means to be human. We loose purpose and meaning to our life, leading to a sens e of disconnection to our selves and the greatness of existence and spirit. How can we really know the greatness of this human birth if we hate ourselves and life. So, I love helping people move past these blocks to discover something grater for themselves and life.

I'm deeply interested in the complex interplay between life, death, and the meaning we create in the space between them. I am particularly drawn to how people navigate their personal stories, especially in times of transformation, grief, and loss. I explore how these experiences are expressed through art, dreams, and creative processes, as they often reveal deeper layers of the psyche and offer pathways to healing. I am also fascinated by the resilience and adaptability of the human spirit, especially in marginalised, disadvantaged, or ageing populations. I focus on supporting these individuals as they navigate life’s challenges, recognising that each person’s journey is unique. My interest lies in helping people connect with their inner resources, build meaningful connections, and find purpose, even amidst life’s most challenging moments.

I am deeply interested in the human journey, particularly in how people overcome adversity and find resilience. I’m passionate about supporting individuals through life’s challenges, whether it's trauma, disability, or relationship struggles. I love exploring therapeutic communication and creative approaches to help clients unlock their strengths, improve their well-being, and build meaningful connections. Seeing people grow, heal, and thrive is what drives my work every day.

I'm forever fascinated by the notion of people being able to transcend their past. It is so easy to spend life being consumed by the same hurts, grievances and troubles that have plagued us since we were young. And yet such compulsions so easily get in the way of us being able to find something greater in life, and to ultimately play our part in serving humanity. This closely ties in with my engagement with the Enneagram, which is a map that demonstrates how we can grow into something more and truly be of service in the world.

I'm particularly interested in the intricate interplay between mental health, emotional resilience, and the human journey toward self-discovery and fulfilment. My work at Stabilise Coaching and Counselling Services is deeply rooted in understanding how our experiences, both past and present, shape our inner world and influence our overall well-being. One aspect of health that I’m incredibly passionate about is the mind-body connection. I believe that mental and emotional health cannot be separated from physical well-being, and I often explore how stress, trauma, and unprocessed emotions manifest in the body. This holistic approach allows me to help clients reconnect with their bodies, fostering greater awareness and healing on all levels. I’m also deeply invested in the journey of personal growth and self-awareness. I find it incredibly rewarding to guide clients through the process of exploring their inner worlds, identifying patterns, and cultivating self-compassion. This journey often involves helping clients navigate challenges such as anxiety, depression, and relationship issues while also empowering them to discover their true selves and live authentically. Another critical area of interest for me is the exploration of ego and soul work. I’m fascinated by how individuals can transcend the limitations of the ego to connect with a deeper sense of purpose and meaning. This aspect of the human journey is crucial in helping clients find inner peace and fulfilment, especially when they feel stuck or disconnected. Ultimately, I’m passionate about supporting individuals through the ups and downs of their human journey, helping them to build resilience, embrace vulnerability, and move towards a more balanced and meaningful life.

I am interested in the health of the whole human being - physical, mental, emotional and spiritual. I believe that depression, anxiety, trauma and grief are not merely conditions that require treatment, but can signal important Iife transitions, rites of passage, crises or dilemmas that can lead to profound growth and change. Suffering is an inevitable part of the universal human condition but can be transformed through compassion and awareness. I feel we are all here to be the fullest expression of our true selves that we can be, and therapy should bring expansion and greater authenticity of self to people's lives.

I am interested in supporting people at any point of their journey - regardless of where someone is at, each aspect of life is rich and an opportunity to become your self. My particular interests include supporting people with substance use, with integrating psychedelic experiences, through life transitions, with inner criticism, with spiritual concerns, and at end of life.

I am interested in human relationships and the barriers to human relationships. I am interested perceiving and moving towards understanding of people as complex beings in complex relationships with other complex beings in complex environments. I am interested in how we co-create our reality and how we can lessen our suffering and that of our fellow (wo)man.

I'm passionate about trauma informed practice, and am almost always enrolled in training around this area, or looking for more ways to deliver a service that supports women recovering from Complex and single incident Trauma. This is an ongoing area of learning. My other special interests are: - Working with Adult Children of Parents with a Mental Illness, especially around personal growth and individuation, exploring disenfranchised or ambiguous grief, and how to set up boundaries that allow clients to 'catch up' on the growth that they may have had to put off in order to stay safe or care for another when they were young. - Chronic and Invisible Illness, including exploring experiences with the health system, managing treatment and experiences of loss and grief around aspects of the self that may not fit easily into the mainstream narrative of grief, and working on strategies and skills to live a meaningful and valued life while managing ongoing symptoms and other life impacts.

I am deeply interested in the whole spectrum of human health and the intricate journey that individuals undertake throughout their lives. From physical well-being to mental, emotional, and spiritual aspects, I recognise the interconnected nature of these dimensions and their impact on overall wellness. My curiosity extends to exploring the factors that contribute to a balanced and fulfilling life, including personal growth, resilience, relationships, and purpose. By embracing a holistic perspective, I strive to support individuals in their pursuit of optimal well-being, helping them navigate challenges, uncover their strengths, and cultivate a sense of wholeness in every facet of their journey.

I am interested in how people view their world and how it influences their values, beliefs and ways of being. I believe all people have equal worth and deserve to have joy in their lives. No matter what their cultural background is, level of education and skills they have. As your counsellor, I will encourage you to respect your distinctiveness and appreciate your uniqueness in the world.

So often our basic human needs seem to be in competition. For example, many people try to balance their need for connection with others with their need for emotional safety, which can create a kind of approach/avoid dynamic. Reconciling the tension created by these apparently contrasting needs is very meaningful for me.

In Lacanian terms, what we experience as anxiety, pain, shame, is termed 'jouissance'. (Of course this is a simple explanation, but it will do for now.) What interests me is the way that the subject can come to an analysis, be witnessed, come to feel safe with their jouissance, which clears the way to take up an absolutely different position to that jouissance. This is life changing.

Jungian analysis focusses on the client's journey towards individuation or self-actualisation. This is the psychological development that we all, more or less successfully, move through as we age. Dream analysis helps to bring the unconscious background into consciousness, helping us not just to transition through our life stages, but to transform. In its deepest emotional sense, individuation is experienced and felt as spiritual development as well as psychological growth and maturity.

The term human journey typically refers to the collective experiences, challenges, and growth that individuals go through throughout their lives. It encompasses a wide range of experiences, both positive and negative, and often involves personal development, self-discovery, and learning. The human journey can include various aspects, such as: Physical Development: This involves the changes in the body from birth to adulthood, including growth, maturation, and aging. Emotional and Psychological Growth: This pertains to developing emotional intelligence, self-awareness, and coping with and understanding one's emotions. Intellectual and Cognitive Development: This encompasses the growth of knowledge, critical thinking skills, problem-solving abilities, and intellectual capacities. Social and Interpersonal Relationships: This involves learning to navigate and form meaningful connections with others, including family, friends, romantic partners, and colleagues. Spiritual and Existential Exploration: Many individuals seek meaning, purpose, and a sense of belonging in the broader context of existence. Life Transitions and Challenges: The human journey includes various life events and transitions such as education, career changes, marriage, parenting, loss, and aging. Personal Goals and Aspirations: This refers to setting and striving towards individual goals, whether they are related to career, personal development, hobbies, or other areas of life. Overcoming Adversity: The human journey often involves facing and overcoming challenges, adversity, and obstacles that may arise along the way. Cultural and Societal Context: The human journey is also influenced by cultural norms, societal expectations, and historical events that shape individual experiences. It's important to note that the human journey is a unique and individualized experience for each person, shaped by their background, experiences, and personal beliefs. It is a continuous process of growth, self-discovery, and adaptation to life's various stages and circumstances.

I began working with teens who have experienced significant and repeated trauma. This then led me to volunteer at the children's hospital alongside my masters degree as I thought I would specialise within the child and adolescent space. I grew exponentially, both personally and professionally through these thought provoking and intense environments. When I opened my private practice, I began working with adults as well as children, teens and their families. I discovered that I thoroughly enjoyed the different developmental stages across a life span and I continue to explore and professionally develop across a wide variety of stages.

Transitions can be stressful and difficult because change, and a lack of autonomy and control, often leads to anxiety and fear, which if left unresolved can create strong resistance, even in the face of unhappiness or pain. This is why I am so interested in the ways that we can try to gradually re-wire our brains and nervous systems to sit with all of our experiences and explore our own insights and wisdom, which could also allow us to embrace any opportunities for growth that these moments or events can bring us.

I am interested in all parts of the human journey. Each client opens another valuable path into understanding the human psyche further. Trauma and the impact on brain development and the unity of both the mind and body, is what particularly interests me as a therapist.

I'm interested in the entire human journey! I love that we all have such vast experiences and differing insights. People are just utterly brilliant. I particularly love it when you see that lightbulb switch on and the client suddenly finds their answer. I also love it when clients finally muster up the courage to say what has really been troubling them and the relief on their faces when they realise they are not being judged for it. Anything goes in therapy. All thoughts and emotions, no matter how crazy you think they are, are welcome. They're probably not so crazy to me :) Finally, I love it when client's pull me up on things - I love that they are empowered and in control and comfortable enough with me to do so. My sessions are truly collaborative which means it goes both ways.

Many people that I see in my practise suffer from depression, anxiety, interpersonal breakdown, interpersonal defensiveness and reactivity, resulting in a sense of frustration with life and an inability to make change. As human beings we cannot avoid suffering, however we can learn to suffer well. I have a deep interest in the human experience and the various environments and dimensions we inhabit. When we are reflected in our experiencing, with benevolent eyes and understanding, I have witnessed the power of change and healing that can occur. Helping people to be able to live with an open heart towards first themselves and then, consequently, toward others, is what provides meaning for me in my work.

I am interested in bringing unconscious thoughts to the surface, changing ingrained patterns of behaviour, childhood experiences and integration of our past traumas. When we are in a safe therapeutic relationship we have an opportunity to integrate the different parts of ourselves, our brain can create new pathways of understanding that can change our behaviour and thought patterns.

Connection and relationships. The more I learn about neurobiology, the more I learn how we are wired for social and human connection. There are many studies emerging that demonstrate how lack of connection is harmful to health. We literally need each other to survive. Normalising emotions such as shame, guilt, anger, fear, and anxiety that normally get buried or suppressed. Allowing deeper connection with the body. There's a lot of wisdom and power to be obtained when we connect on a somatic level. This can be challenging for many people, especially if they have experienced trauma, so my approach is to go slow and create safety first.

From this integrated approach I would say that I am particularly interested in how a person could discover a more satisfactory and meaningful way of being. A persons's well-being is never static and can be felt on a continuum from traumatic to ecstatic. It is about bringing an awareness to ones way of living, the choices we have to make and the ultimate concerns we have about life and living, that I am most keen to support, in a person's journey towards more meaningful and fulfilling living.

When I was first training in counselling, I remember a tutor asking what kind of areas I would like to work in - and I said 'Anything but relationship counselling'. Now, it is probably the thing that interests me the most. I find such diversity in relationships and so much potential for increased connection, understanding and joy that I leave almost every session feeling a little elated. Note, I didn't say 'Couples Counselling' or 'Marriage Counselling'. We have so many different models for relationships now that I think its short sighted not to learn from different styles and models of relationships.

Aspects of the human journey I'm interested in are thought process and related somatic symptoms and the effect it has on ones journey through life. There are often repeated episodes a person can experience on a daily basis and we tend to push them into the background and if not acknowledged they will persist. To change ones pathway I hope to be a guide with my participant helping them explore and acknowledge these repeated annoyances in their lives giving them a way to move forward in a more positive direction.

Being a massage therapist, I'm very interested in the mind-body connection, but I also have a first-hand understanding of how strange it can be for some people to hear that their physical complaint might have a psychological or emotional origin. Shame is also a key interest. So many of us walk around with a deep-seated belief that we are fundamentally defective or unacceptable and it can be so destructive.
