MY PRACTICE
“Only what is really oneself has the power to heal.” Carl Jung
Approach and practice
What kind of therapy do you offer?
My work is integrative, relational and body-centred. It is attachment- and psychodynamically informed, with a focus on trauma and developmental wounds, shame, desire, boundaries, and embodied emotional processes.
I work collaboratively and at a pace that supports regulation and choice.
What might we do in sessions
Depending on what you need, sessions may include talking therapy, somatic tracking, relational process, and imagery/imaginal exploration. For clients who want to include energy work, I also offer hands-on Brennan Healing Science® sessions, and we can integrate this with therapeutic process and reflection.
Do you specialise in anything?
My work often focuses on patterns in ancestral, family and romantic relationships, especially where people feel stuck in repeating dynamics or unsure why the same experience keeps happening. I support the processing of unconscious or repressed material (including dreams), and I integrate somatic awareness, imagery/imaginal work, and relational process to help bring what’s hidden into clearer contact.
​
I’m particularly interested in strengthening a person’s sense of self, in the truest sense, so they can feel more grounded, more resourced, and more able to choose what is right for them, especially in intimacy and relationship.
Professionally, I have a strong interest in supporting people affected by addiction and recovery, polarised or extreme inner states, and the enduring impact of childhood trauma and developmental wounds, including experiences that may have been subtle, confusing, or difficult to name.
I'm a little nervous about starting - should I be?
In my personal and professional experience, therapy can be both challenging and beautiful, demanding, and at times deeply revelatory. It asks for increasing bravery and self-honesty, yet what it gives back is often far greater than what it costs. The fullness of the process, the light and the shadow, is reflective of life itself.
​
To hold these two sides with care is, ultimately, what the psyche longs for: balance. Our sessions will be guided by what you bring, and we will always work at a pace that is most suited to you.
Working together
An introductory online session is our opportunity to meet and get a clear sense of what working together might be like. You're welcome to ask me any questions you have at this stage, and I'll be asking you a bit about your life history, current situation and therapeutic needs as part of a full assessment. The session will last between 30 minutes for which I charge no fee and ongoing therapy will be discussed and agreed upon collaboratively if we both decide to continue.
