Individual Therapy

A space to understand yourself and your relationships

People come to individual therapy for many different reasons.

You may be feeling anxious, overwhelmed or low in confidence. You may be struggling with a harsh inner critic, feeling uncertain about who you are, or noticing that the same emotional or relationship patterns keep returning.

Sometimes the difficulty is clearly connected to a partner, family member or friendship. At other times, it may be more about the relationship you have with yourself — feeling disconnected from your needs, finding it difficult to trust your feelings, or appearing capable on the outside while feeling vulnerable or unsure internally.

Individual therapy offers a confidential and supportive space to explore what is happening for you. Together, we can begin to understand both the immediate difficulty and what may be sitting beneath it.

My approach is warm, thoughtful and collaborative. You do not need to arrive with a clear explanation of what is wrong. We can begin with whatever feels most important and allow the work to develop at a pace that feels manageable.

More on 1-2-1 therapy with me

I am an integrative psychotherapist, which means I draw from a range of therapeutic models and approaches. This allows me to tailor the work to each person, finding the way of working that feels most helpful and supportive for you.

  • I work with people experiencing:

    • anxiety, shame or persistent self-doubt

    • low self-worth or a strong inner critic

    • difficulty feeling confident or comfortable around other people

    • challenging family relationships or the impact of earlier family roles

    • friendship difficulties, loneliness or uncertainty about belonging

    • repeating patterns in dating or intimate relationships

    • conflict, separation, rejection or loss of trust

    • challenges around closeness, desire, boundaries or sexual connection

    • grief, loss and significant changes in life or identity

    • feeling disconnected from yourself, your emotions or what you need

    • questions about meaning, direction and how you want to live

  • Therapy can offer a space to slow down and explore your experience more fully. It may help you to:

    • understand yourself and your emotional responses more deeply

    • recognise patterns in your relationships and inner life

    • explore how earlier experiences may still be affecting you

    • develop a less critical and more supportive relationship with yourself

    • become clearer about your feelings, needs and boundaries

    • feel more grounded and connected

    • experiment with different ways of responding to yourself and others

    For some people, therapy provides shorter-term support around a particular concern. For others, it becomes a longer-term space for deeper understanding and change.

  • I offer individual therapy online and in person.

    Sessions are 50 minutes and usually take place weekly.
