About me and my therapy practice

I am an experienced Relationship Therapist and work with individuals and couples who wish to develop a more relational life, overcome barriers to intimacy and enjoy mutually satisfying relationships.

I have an eclectic approach to working with people depending on their particular circumstances and needs and what works best for them.

Practice description

Relationships define our world and are integral to our sense of well-being and belonging. However, life is demanding, relationships can be challenging and we sometimes feel out of our depth or overwhelmed.

Everyone hopes for understanding but the intricacies of sex and relationships can often lead to confusion, disappointment and despondency.

Being conscious of your own needs and longings not only improves the chances of having them met, but also enhances your receptivity to hear and respond to the needs of those for whom you care and love.

Recognising what each of you wants or expects from a relationship paves the way for tackling what interferes with achieving it.

All too often, defensiveness and sensitivity from past experience inhibits communication, maintains unhelpful patterns and undermines goodwill. Unravelling this is part of the process of therapy, along with acknowledging and respecting another鈥檚 point of view.

People are the experts on their lived experience and how they feel about it; this, along with what they hope for, will always be our starting point when working together.
