How It Works

“You put together two things that have not been put together before. And the world is changed. People may not notice at the time, but that doesn't matter.”
Julian Barnes

I know how important the relationship between a client and counsellor is, so I put real time, care, and effort into building that connection, working collaboratively with you throughout. It’s important to feel like you’re in supportive and trustworthy hands - and that’s exactly what I aim to provide. That's why I bring a non-judgemental, patient, and caring approach - creating a space where you can feel safe and supported. I believe you can grow, change and ultimately heal. Providing the right conditions for this to happen is an important aspect of our work together.

I offer weekly psychodynamic therapy for adults and couples, and each session lasts for fifty minutes. I prefer to work face-to-face because I believe it is the most effective way to connect and progress; however, I can also offer online sessions.

Client Feedback

"I feel totally understood and as I said early on in our therapy 'you get me'. You encourage me to think about my behaviour (which can be challenging at times for me because one likes to think of oneself as being good and behaving in a loving way to others, but sometimes we need to know that perhaps our past is impacting negatively on our current behaviours).”

“You help my confidence and self-esteem to grow considerably enabling me to make better choices and make changes in my life that have the potential to make me so much happier.”

“Love and life can flourish and be satisfying and meaningful.”

“I started it because I was struggling a great deal at the time with anxiety and depression, and having someone to listen to my problems and offer their own thoughts was very important as it gave me perspective I otherwise wouldn't have had.”

“I was able to reconsider what I wanted to do with myself going forward, which has given me a lot of confidence and a clearer idea of what I want to do in the future.”

"It was so good to talk with you. Out of ten I feel seven re my deep feelings which is much, much more survivable. I feel I could title a book 'How to get where you want to be.' Best wishes, Susan."
