Do you struggle to stay motivated?
Do you feel not good enough at times? Find yourself yo-yo'ing from "yeah, let's do this!" to "what's the bloody point"?
Do you often feel stuck, like you're holding yourself back? Try moving forward, but something always gets in the way. And then you're caught up somewhere between self-distraction and a mountain of 'shoulds'?
What if you could let go of those things?
Imagine life, being motivated to do what you feel passionate about. More content. Able to find peace and get in touch with your creativity when you need to. More focused. And feeling capable to create new opportunities for yourself.
Real change is possible.

Fees
Research tells us the single most important factor in therapy is the relationship between you and your therapist. So it's important we know we're right for each other.
That's why I always start with a conversation.
Those I speak with frequently tell me how helpful and enlightening our first conversation is. Because the approach is new for them. Meaning they see things from a new perspective.
We'll arrange a time to talk and understand what's really going on for you. And what you'd like to achieve. We're then better placed to agree our arrangements for working together.
I'm only able to work with a small number of people at any one time. So I choose only to work with those who are really committed to change.
Sound like you? Then do get in touch. I'd love to hear from you.
