Working towards greater freedom

Why therapy

“Your vision will become clear only when you can look into your own heart.”

Carl Gustav Jung

Coming to therapy is giving yourself time and space to make sense of confusing feelings and experiences, to better understand your emotions and relationships, to discover deeper aspects of yourself.

Therapy can help with a broad range of issues:

stress & anxiety
low mood & depression
trauma - childhood & adulthood
shame
difficulty relating & connecting to others
loneliness
abuse - emotional, physical, sexual, neglect, bullying
grief & loss of a loved one, health, home, culture
self-hatred & self-harm
low self-esteem & perfectionism

“Loneliness does not come from having no people around, but from being unable to communicate the things that seem important to you.”

Carl Gustav Jung

What to expect

A woman with short hair, wearing a green sweater and a beaded necklace, stands outdoors in front of green shrubbery and trees.

You will find safe and confidential space to talk and to explore your difficulties, to think about your feelings and to explore your way forward.

Together we will look at both conscious and unconscious aspects of your life; we will explore patterns in your interactions and explore your relationship dynamics with yourself and others.

As children we may have learned to be a certain way and developed certain patterns that once used to shield us from harm but now are getting in way. We will work towards greater awareness and acceptance of yourself, greater attunement to your needs so you can make more intentional choices and live in a more fulfilled way.
