​Psychotherapy
​​​in Frome

Welcome
Picture
I provide a safe and welcoming therapeutic space for you to explore any of the issues that bring you to therapy.

I am an experienced Psychotherapist, and have been providing therapy for over fifteen years in a variety of settings. I originally trained as a Psychologist, and have completed further training in mindfulness-based psychotherapy.

My Approach

Psychotherapy can help people to develop a better relationship with themselves, others, and with life experiences. it can help people to make positive changes, and to develop a kind acceptance for what cannot be changed.

My approach is a blend of Psychodynamic therapy with mindfulness.

Psychodynamic Psychotherapy recognises how our early relationship experiences and the ways we have needed to cope in childhood and adolescence, may be affecting us today.

Mindfulness strengthens our ability to see clearly, and to live in the here and now, with compassion. This simply means we practice taking a pause from our thinking minds, and pay some attention to what is happening in the present moment.

This is a collaborative and an exploratory therapy, where we are curious together about what you bring to the sessions, and practice looking inwards to understand this better. It is a depth therapy rather than a solution focused approach.

Who can benefit from this approach?

I work with people who experience anxiety, depression, anger, shame or guilt, relationship difficulties, low self-esteem, grief, and issues around sense of self or identity.

​My way of working is also trauma-informed, providing safety and tools for those who have experienced trauma or emotional neglect in childhood or adulthood.

What to expect

The therapy is shaped around your own individual needs, but here are some things you could expect from us working together:
​
  • Being deeply listened to, heard and seen.
  • Developing a trusting and honest relationship.
  • Being curious together about the issues or patterns you notice.
  • Getting to know your authentic self and building resources.
  • Exploring what gets in the way of your wellbeing, including thoughts, beliefs, emotions or relationship patterns.
  • Short and simple mindful awareness pauses in the session, for those who would like this.
  • Support to find your own answers, but also opportunities to challenge some of your assumptions where this may be seen as helpful.
  • Support and safety around putting words to early experiences, including unmet needs or trauma.

I am currently able to offer online / Zoom therapy sessions.
