​You may be going through a crisis or more long term difficulties which are preventing you from being productive at work or is interfering with important relationships. This might leave you feeling worried or depressed and it might be hard to cope with feelings of anger, low self-esteem or shame as a result. ​It can be lonely struggling with mental distress and can sometimes be hard to see an end or a way out. Psychotherapy can help to stabilise things in the short term and manage those underlying issues that might be causing you stress leading to a more positive outlook on life. ​​ ​​​People who I work with find not only do the difficulties with which they first come to therapy improve, but that they gain a more confident sense of self, are more effective at work and are able to develop and maintain more meaningful relationships. ​​ It can be daunting to start therapy and figure out who you might want to see or what kind of therapy might suit you best. Do get in touch for a free initial call for us to think together about what brings you to therapy and for you to get a sense of what this kind of therapy is like. I specialise in psychodynamic also known as psychoanalytic psychotherapy which works in depth with unconscious processes that are outside of our immediate awareness. This type of therapy can be especially helpful for more long term difficulties that might have their beginnings in early life, deeper rooted ongoing relationships or challenging work situations. ​​​​​ I'm particularly interested in working with people who may struggle to understand where their difficulties may be coming from despite trying other approaches already. I offer short term crisis work and more long term in depth psychotherapy.
