Biography
Do you have issues around intimacy and sex? Are you experiencing relationship issues? Do you repeat the same patterns over and over again? Do you find it difficult to express your emotions and feelings? Is attachment or trust an issue for you? Are you affected by past relationships or experiences? Are there issues around compulsive sexual behaviour/ sex addiction? Perhaps you are experiencing a change in your relationship after the children have left home, the birth of a baby, or because you have been together for a while and have stopped communicating in an effective way? Or have you just finished a relationship and need closure and direction for the future? I offer a confidential, non-judgemental space where we can explore issues in a way most suited to you. I am happy to work with you by telephone, Zoom or face to face – whatever you feel most comfortable with. I also offer single session therapy to help you find out what the best way forward is.

Types of Therapy Used
I work in a systemic, psycho-dynamic way using a wide variety of therapies to suit each individual and specific situation. I have an integrative approach to suit each individual and specific situation and I use a wide variety of techniques in order to engage you in the process. The most important thing is to build an environment where you can feel safe and able to discuss issues and discover potential solutions.
