As a systemic psychotherapist and family therapist, I am trained in various theories and models, which enable me to work effectively with the dilemmas and difficulties faced by individuals, couples, and families. My training allows me to adapt my style to the differing perspectives and ideas present in the room. I have worked with people across a wide range of cultures, ages, backgrounds, and life experiences.
I am particularly interested in what gets talked about, what gets responded to, what does not get talked about and how this affects relationships, all of this communication stuff. I have experience of working with physical health issues, neuro-developmental needs, divorcing and separating couples and families, sibling difficulties. As well as earlier traumatic experiences.
I believe that people are resourceful and often hold clues about what they think would help them live a more fulfilling life. I find that a collaborative approach can help people draw on their own resources and expertise. I will bring to the work a curious, caring presence but also a space for gentle and supportive challenge.
