How Can I Help
Psychodynamic Counselling
Psychodynamic Counselling is a therapeutic approach that focuses on mental processes that are hidden from us. Past experiences, particularly those from childhood, influence how we feel about ourselves and the patterns we repeat in our current relationships. I aim to provide a safe and confidential space to explore your past and the difficulties you are facing to help you develop awareness, insight and understanding. Through unlocking feelings that may have been hidden for years, you can begin to feel less confused and start making changes in your life. People come to counselling for a variety of reasons and it can be helpful to share your thoughts and feelings with a therapist who is trained to listen and work in a non-judgmental way so we can think together about the problems you are facing.

What to expect in a counselling session: |
Sessions last 50 minutes and are non-directive and reflective allowing you to connect past experiences with present behaviours. You might discuss your life experiences, emotions, dreams and childhood memories. This is a confidential space where you can express whatever you are experiencing freely and safely.

Herbal and Naturopathic Treatment
In a world increasingly focused on holistic health, herbal and naturopathic treatments have emerged as natural alternatives or adjuncts to conventional medicine. These approaches emphasize the use of natural substances and therapies to promote overall well-being and address the root causes of health issues, rather than merely alleviating symptoms.
What is Herbal Treatment? |
Herbal treatment involves the use of plants and their extracts to improve health and wellness. Herbs have been utilized for centuries in various cultures for their healing properties. From ancient traditions to modern applications, herbal medicine can support a wide range of health concerns. Whether you are looking to strengthen your immune system, alleviate digestive issues, or manage stress, there is likely a herbal remedy that can help.

Combining Counselling and Herbalism/Naturopathy
I believe that true wellness encompasses both the body and the mind. By integrating herbalism and naturopathy with counselling I can create a comprehensive approach that promotes healing on multiple levels. While herbal remedies, diet changes and supplements support the body’s natural healing processes, counselling provides the emotional support and insights needed to foster self-awareness and growth. Many herbs have mood-enhancing properties that can help alleviate symptoms such as anxiety and depression or help you manage stress more effectively whilst we work on an emotional level.
