Integrative relational psychotherapy in Bristol
Psychotherapy is an invitation to truth. We suffer when we are disconnected from the truths of ourselves — what we feel, what we know, what has happened to us, what we want and need. Therapy can offer a rare space to explore beyond the self you may have learned you are, or the self you have had to become, and discover other ways of being. A relationship that is respectful, honest and attuned can open doors to the deeper parts of you that hold your authenticity and wisdom and are oriented towards growth.
I offer skilled, creative and collaborative psychotherapy in Bristol. My work involves deep listening in a confidential and compassionate space, a commitment to understanding and helping you make sense of your experience and an informed therapeutic approach that's responsive to who you are.
I work with people facing relationship problems, difficult life changes, intense emotional responses or patterns they can’t seem to get unstuck from. Some have trouble with relationships in general, or with a particular relationship. Some come with anxiety or depression, struggle to accept themselves or have a sense that their life could be more. You may have a diagnosis, or feelings and experiences you don’t yet have a name for, or be haunted by past events.
I specialise in working with trauma and dissociation, including PTSD and complex PTSD, and am a member of the International Society for the Study of Trauma & Dissociation (ISST-D).
In my experience, what we call symptoms are often stories wanting to be heard.
I work individually with adults 18+ in central Bristol.
