  • why do people come to therapy?

    my experience is that it is never for a singular reason that people seek therapy. reasons for seeking therapy may centre around existential, relational or intrarelational challenges, or concerns within fields of the psyche or phenomenon.

    i have experience of working with those challenged in not insignificant ways by anxiety, disassociation, low-self esteem, chaotic relationships, depressive episodes, grief, lack of purpose, failing relationship, self harming behaviours, bereavement, disordered eating, dependencies, attachment difficulties, infertility, compulsive behaviour, body image, or suicidal ideation
