How I'll help you

I suggest we either meet online for an initial free consultation or alternatively talk by phone, so we can see if we're the 'right' fit, to see if my way of working will meet your needs. If you prefer to book an initial paid appointment, you're welcome to, with no obligation to rebook. I will hear from you what brings you and what you want to achieve and I can explain to you how I work and what's required from you. If these both match, we can then agree a way forward.

 

My approach is compassionate, warm and without judgment, helping you to understand you in a different capacity and at a deeper root level, increasing your self-awareness so I can help you make changes you want in your life, for the long term, not short-term fixes. With this in mind, I don't focus on 'strategies' but I will make suggestions to you that will help you manage and change your responses.

​​

I draw upon my knowledge; Attachment Theory, Psychodynamic, Internal Family Systems & Neuroscience/Neurobiology, including Modern Trauma Theory (Bessel van der Kolk, Janina Fischer) I invite you to ask me any questions about these theories and how they can help you. I am a huge follower of Gabor Mate and I work in alignment with how he works as a psychotherapist www.drgabormate.com

​As therapy is a process and takes a regular commitment to increase awareness and make changes, weekly appointments are essential. This way for working is in alignment with accessing therapy in the NHS following NICE guidelines of what works best for the outcomes of therapy.

​​Be assured, I will be alongside you every step of the way.

The cost of this service is £90 for a 50 minutes appointment.
