Practice description

My approach aims to use the therapeutic relationship to address the underlying causes which might originate in the past but continue to impact on your life and relationships. This can be effective when there are repeated patterns or problems which you cannot make sense of. It is an exploratory approach which can feel unstructured but allows the opportunity for you to explore yourself in a way that is often not possible in other relationships.

I work with individuals with a wide range of difficulties so please contact me with any queries or to arrange an initial consultation so we can consider if this approach might be helpful.

I also work with couples using a psychodynamic approach to understand problems and dynamics that can become stuck within a relationship.
