Psychotherapy
People seek therapy for many different reasons. You may be going through a crisis or perhaps day to day life feels really challenging. Maybe there isn't a specific issue, but you're feeling empty or have a lack of direction in your life. I offer a space where we can sit down together and explore what's happening for you and why. It is a space where you can feel acknowledged, listened to and supported. It's a space where you can to try and make sense of your life and who you really are. I believe this space helps open up the possibility of living life with more ease and fulfillment.
I am a humanistic and integrative psychotherapist. I am also at trainer at the Bath Centre for Psychotherapy and Counselling. Before training in psychotherapy I worked in financial services and had a short stint in the wine industry. I was born and grew up in New Zealand, but my adult years have been spent moving between there and the UK. I am now settled in the UK (in Bath) and doing what I love - helping people to make more sense of their lives and become more resilient.
Psychotherapy can help with a broad range of difficulties and issues. The most common areas I see people for are:
-
Depression & mood swings
-
Stress, anxiety & overwhelm
-
Anger & irritability
-
Dealing with history of trauma or abuse
-
Family conflicts & issues
-
Eco-anxiety & eco-grief including fear and despair about the climate & ecological crisis
-
Work related issues – career anxiety, lack of direction & career transitions
-
Lack of confidence & low self worth
-
Relationship issues
-
Feelings of meaninglessness or emptiness
-
Grief & loss – bereavement or relationship break up
-
Relocation - living away from ‘home’
-
Cultural conflicts – sense of identity, feelings of belonging & freedom
-
Pressures of parenting or caring for older parents
I am currently working face to face and online. My face to face sessions are held in my consulting room in central Bath. For online sessions, I use Zoom.
