What It's Like Working With Me
I try to ensure clients feel that their concerns are heard and understood in a safe and supportive therapy environment. In the first session, I like to give clients the opportunity to speak fully about the reasons they have come to therapy.
I also want clients to understand what may help them and the best-practice treatment strategies I can provide. I like to develop a treatment plan together with the client and support them towards achieving their goals throughout therapy.
I also assist clients to enhance their self-esteem and positivity through strategies and practices drawn from positive psychology.

Approaches I May Use
My approach is based on humanistic psychology and is client-centred, with a belief in each person’s potential to grow and move towards greater self-understanding and fulfilment.
I believe people may come to therapy when they feel unfulfilled, disconnected from their values or needs, or unsure of what is important and meaningful to them. My role is to help clients explore their values, needs and wants, and develop a clearer understanding of themselves.
With greater understanding, clients can begin to identify what they would like to change and work towards making those changes in their lives.
