Tired of difficult thoughts and feelings controlling your life? I help people make sense of what's keeping them stuck and take back control, so life is guided by what matters, not fear and self-doubt.
Book a sessionIf you've been struggling with anxiety, self-doubt, or overthinking - and despite trying hard to feel differently, you're still stuck - I can help you understand why. What you're experiencing makes sense when you understand what's driving it, and that's exactly where we start. I've been working as a psychotherapist for over 20 years, supporting people through anxiety, trauma, self-doubt, low mood, and the kind of exhausting internal battle that's hard to explain to anyone else. What I've learned in that time is that most people don't need more willpower or better coping strategies. They need to understand why they feel the way they do - and then things start to shift. When we work together, the first thing most people notice is that their experience begins to make sense. Not in a way that dismisses how hard it's been, but in a way that helps them see what's actually keeping them stuck. From there, we work on building practical, workable ways to reduce the impact that difficult thoughts and feelings have on your life - so that rather than being controlled by them, you're able to take back control over how you live and what you move towards. I draw on CBT, ACT, Compassion Focused Therapy, and EMDR, adapting whatever is most useful for you rather than following a rigid script. My focus is always on what will actually make a difference in your day-to-day life. So if you're looking to break free from the problematic patterns of thinking and behaviour that you are stuck in, I would be very happy to help you better understand your experiences, what has been keeping you stuck, help you develop more effective skills for managing difficult thoughts and feelings, allowing you to then focus on living life in line with your goals and values.
