How psychotherapy can help
I work with adults from many different backgrounds and experiencing a wide range of challenges and difficulties. I work mainly on a one-to-one, face-to-face basis (with some remote working). I have a particular interest in helping people who are struggling with:
Stress
Coping with the demands of modern lifestyles, developing emotional resilience.
Anxiety
Confusing, unhelpful and destructive, negative thinking patterns. Feeling anxious, frightened or panic.
Depression
Feeling low, emotionally exhausted, broken and unable to cope. A general sense of dissatisfaction with life.
Loss and grief
Bereavement, mourning, relationship loss, redundancy.
Relationships
Communication problems, repeating negative patterns of behaviour, difficulties in sustaining a healthy, satisfying relationship, dealing with loss and loneliness, separation and divorce, family issues.
Low self-esteem
Low sense of self-worth, self-sabotage, repeating, self-limiting behaviours.
Lack of confidence
Always pleasing others, feeling overlooked, difficulties in asserting yourself.
Life-transitions
Leaving home or children leaving home, ‘quarter and mid-life crisis’, new relationship, career change, retirement, ageing.
Personal identity and life purpose
Confusion or doubts about personal identity and life purpose.
Work-related issues
Mental Health at Work: Stress and burnout, difficult interpersonal relationships, dealing with office politics, bullying and harassment, work-life balance, career development.
Personal Development
Developing emotional intelligence; managing yourself and others effectively and thriving in a stressful environment. Releasing unrealised potential.
