Inclusive, integrative psychotherapy for young people and adults

In making the decision to start therapy, you are choosing yourself. Your wellbeing, your energy, and your heart over the dissatisfaction, melancholy, the repeated frustrations. Nothing will change unless something changes. 

And it can feel overwhelming to want to change, but there is something in you (no matter how small that part) that perhaps believes it could be better. That there is more to living than this. Trusting that part can be scary. It is also the first step.

My goal as an accredited psychotherapist is to move with you through emotional difficulties, using creative interventions and metaphor to think about that which can be difficult to put into words. The work is relational and seeks to deepen personal understanding of patterns and sensations (yes we will be thinking together about your childhood).

“The previously unmanageable feelings become more manageable. They become less terrifying than before, because another person has actually felt them and has been able to tolerate the experience of those feelings”

(Casement, 1985:82)
