How I work

I am a qualified psychodynamic counsellor. I work with adults to help them address issues including anxiety, stress and depression. These problems can arise through loss and bereavement, trauma, low self-esteem and external factors such as third culture issues and family conflict.

I use the psychodynamic approach which is about understanding how your past experiences—especially those from childhood—might be influencing the way you feel, think, and behave today. It’s like exploring the deeper layers of your mind to uncover patterns or emotions you might not even realize are there.

Sometimes, we carry unresolved feelings or experiences from the past that affect our relationships, self-esteem, or how we handle stress. By talking through these things in a safe, supportive space, we can start to connect the dots between past events and current struggles.

This method isn’t about quick fixes but about gaining insight into yourself so you can make long-term, meaningful changes. It’s like shining a light on parts of your life that might have been hidden, helping you understand yourself better and feel more in control.

I help my clients gain understanding of their emotions to enable them to move forward. I believe that therapy helps provide a sense of relief and self-awareness for those who feel overwhelmed or are having trouble finding the root of their problems. It takes courage to seek out a more fulfilling and happier life and to take the first steps towards a change. I am here to support & empower you in that journey.
