Taking the scenic route.
Therapy is an opportunity to better understand yourself, your relationships, and the challenges you may be facing. It offers a space to pause, reflect, and make sense of your experiences.
It is a paced and explorative process - one that invites you to take the scenic route through your inner life.
Therapy can offer different things to different people. For some, it is a space to process and work through a particular difficulty. For others, it becomes a regular opportunity for reflection and self-understanding.
In essence, therapy is a deeply personal experience, shaped by your individual needs, interests, and hopes for change.
In our weekly sessions, you are free to bring whatever feels important to you. My role is to walk alongside you. I may ask questions, notice patterns or themes, offer reflections or alternative perspectives, and provide gentle challenges - always with the intention of supporting you.
Together, we may explore past experiences and relationships, and consider how these might connect to what you are experiencing in the present. Above all, therapy is your space, and the direction of the work will be guided by what feels most meaningful to you.

How does it work?
Initial enquiry and assessment
After you get in touch, we’ll arrange an initial assessment session. This is an opportunity for me to learn more about you and what has brought you to therapy, and for you to get a sense of what it might be like to work together.
Weekly sessions
If we decide together to go ahead, we’ll arrange weekly sessions lasting 50 minutes (often referred to as a ‘therapy hour’), held at the same time and day each week.
Reviewing as we go
There is no fixed timeframe for therapy. However, I usually recommend committing to an initial 6-week period to settle into the process, before reviewing how it’s going.
