Welcome, Im a Relational therapist with many years of experience working within Women's Health, bereavement and addiction services in Bristol. Whatever is bringing you to seek therapy, whether it be relationship or work issues, grief, trauma, long term health issues, Autism or ADHD, a general sense of overwhelm, burnout or anxiety I can help.I am warm, friendly and non-judgemental and bring this to our relationship in sessions. We are equals in the room, you bringing your story and individual life experiences, and I in return offering an open, empathic relationship within which you are safe to begin to explore and untangle life events and beliefs that are/have caused you harm or emotional pain. All of you is welcome here...I offer both long and short term therapy. You may want to bring a specific issue such as work place stress, relationship issues, a loss or anxiety around a particular life event. Maybe you are unsure of what you will bring but simply need space to discuss and unravel any anxiety, burnout or overwhelm.We can work together to unpick what is happening and why.... leading to clarity which in turn brings about a sense of empowerment, confidence and greater control of a situation.In longer term work you might find you are ready to begin exploring yourself deeper and looking at parts of self that have been hurt, shamed or suppressed, often these create feelings such as anger, jealousy, anxiety, low self esteem and fear....... they can show up by us being less present in relationships, causing issues in home and work life or leading to a general sense of dis-satisfaction. Maybe less helpful coping strategies such as gambling or alcohol and substance abuse/addiction have arisen. By giving these hidden parts a voice, finding their origins and accepting them as a universal part of being human, it is my experience that we can find a greater sense of self-awareness and acceptance of our ‘whole self’.
