Out of your deepest pain comes your highest power.
About Me: The Anxiety Therapist
My passion is working deeply with professionals to help them identify and heal their inner wounds - and find clarity, confidence and purpose in life.
My passion for therapy was born from my own story; Once upon a time I was riddled with anxiety.
I cared way too much about what people thought. Questioned every decision. Worried about money. Status. Looks. Relationships. Wasted countless hours wondering who was saying what.
With a background in educational psychology, I spent a lot of time in academia, studying human behaviour - why we think, feel and act the way we do.
I noticed people around me were also struggling. So I dug deep to find out why.
And every single time, I saw the same result.
It all came down to deeply rooted traumas, sometimes from our very early lives, that led to anxiety, depression, and unbelievable stress.
Most people I knew were suffering in silence.
They seemed put together, but were plagued by terrible hidden pain.
My own healing was the first step. With the help of an amazing therapist, I explored my deepest wounds.
Suddenly it all began to make so much sense.
My thoughts, behaviours, feelings, and patterns were all linked to my early experiences.
With this awareness I discovered that it was possible to heal. And I felt an overwhelming urge to share this with others. I wanted to show people that transformation was possible by helping them look inward.
Who looks outside dreams; who looks within awakens.
-Carl Jung
I work with the philosophy that we are all driven to become our best selves.
I truly believe that exploring your deepest suffering will lead to you discovering your highest power.
Counselling isn't for everyone. But stop for a moment and think about what led you here.
Something in you wants to find freedom. Clarity. Confidence. Purpose. Joy.
If you are struggling with anxiety; personally, professionally or in relationships - it's time to take charge of your life.
My mission is to do deep, therapeutic work with people who are ready to heal from their inner wounds and see radical transformations in their lives.
I hold the following qualifications:
Diploma in Therapeutic Counselling (Dip.Couns)
Honours Bachelor of Science in Psychology (BSc. Hons)
Bachelor of Education (B.Ed)
Certificate in Counselling Studies
I am an Accredited Member of the BACP
