Psychotherapy and Counselling in Bristol
My approach as a psychotherapeutic counsellor is pluralistic, which means I do not believe there is a “one-size-fits-all” approach to therapy. Instead, we will work together in a truly collaborative way, with the objective of finding what feels most helpful to you as an individual experiencing therapy.
At the heart of my practice is the therapeutic relationship. I offer a warm, non-judgemental space where you can feel heard, accepted and understood. Working together in this way, you can gently explore life experiences, recurring patterns of behaviour, difficult feelings, stress, anxiety, self-esteem, relationships and personal growth.
Hypnotherapy in Bristol
Hypnotherapy can be a helpful and holistic way of supporting the individual. As a talking therapy, it is about exploring and understanding what may drive a person to think, feel and behave in ways that have become unhelpful to them, both in past and present experiences of life.
Hypnosis, or trance, is a natural and relaxing state, encouraged through guided relaxation. It can allow the mind to focus on thoughts, ideas and suggestions that may be useful. I offer solution focused hypnotherapy, as well as creative hypnotherapy and hypnoanalysis, depending on what feels most appropriate for the work we are doing together.
I firmly believe that every unique individual has the inherent ability to strive towards accomplishing goals, overcome life’s hurdles and affect positive and meaningful change.
