My training in integrative psychotherapy means that I can draw from a wide range of theories, including person centred, cognitive behavioural therapy (cbt), psychodynamic, solution-focused brief therapy and compassion-focused therapy to support your needs. I view emotional distress as a normal response to life circumstances and I will suggest different techniques according to your unique experience.  For example, if you want help to stop your panic attacks I will suggest some cbt options for you to try;  whereas if you want to process some childhood trauma I will talk to you about the possibility of some inner child work.  

We will work together and I will always ensure that you are comfortable with the approach we take.  I have experience of working with mental health problems right across the spectrum from temporary anxieties due to set-backs to more deep-seated difficulties such as depression, dissociation and complex grief. Clients who have experienced childhood trauma and those who have experienced abuse have benefitted from my professional support;  as have clients who experience suicidal thoughts, post-traumatic stress, ocd, family estrangement, relationship problems, divorce, grief, loss and bereavement, health issues, work related issues, bullying, loneliness, low self-esteem, stress, depression/low mood, anxiety and panic attacks.
