Supporting People at Every Stage of Life

I offer psychodynamic psychotherapy tailored to each individual’s emotional needs, experiences, and personal journey.

Children

Creating a safe, consistent relationship where the child can express themselves and gradually make sense of their inner world. Through play, creativity, and the therapeutic relationship, I aim to understand the emotional meaning behind the child’s behaviour and experiences.

Young People

Help young people make sense of emotional experiences that may feel confusing, overwhelming, or hard to talk about. The therapeutic relationship itself is central. Young people may test boundaries, withdraw, or struggle to trust, and these dynamics are understood as meaningful rather than ‘problems to fix’. Helping them to navigate identity, relationships, self-esteem and life transitions.

Adult

In therapy, you are supported to talk freely about your thoughts, feelings, relationships, and life experiences. The therapist listens closely not just to what is said, but also to patterns, emotions, and themes that emerge over time. Furthermore the therapist offers a consistent, reliable, and non-judgemental space where thoughts and feelings can be thought about together, rather than acted on or avoided.
