Practice description
My aim is to involve myself in a persons' efforts to make sense of the thoughts, feelings or actions that are troubling them and to allow quiet space for thought and reflection without judgment. The insights that come to light in our conversations are the result of our joint endeavours to find meaning and understanding in the face of confusion and distress.
Areas of particular interest: I worked for 10 years as a bereavement counsellor and continue to develop my interest in the associated difficulties with grief and loss.
I am also interested in the area of coercive control and working with boundaries around the self, including the problem of being either too much intruded on or too distant in relationships.
