Every person is unique and has their own way of facing themselves, often it can take time to achieve these objectives and to understand the potential barriers to improvement. I will work with you to develop a personal recovery plan. Helping you to develop techniques for the longer term to identify the risks of slipping back into the old destructive behaviours and to supply a tool box of such techniques to address these risk.

My approach is based on the principle that, unconsciously, we recreate patterns from the past in our current relationships both with other people and towards ourselves. Such thoughts, feelings and behaviours are deep rooted, and can be, at times, unhelpful and destructive

I will work with you during each session to discuss your concerns, explore and try to understand the less conscious influences on your thoughts, feelings and behaviours. By gaining an insight into the nature of underlying emotional conflicts it can be possible to bring relief.

I value diversity offering an unbiased and accepting approach when engaging with areas of difference such as race, gender, sexual orientation, religion, class, age, culture and nationality.
