Specialising in Psychodynamic Therapy
Ongoing Psychodynamic Therapy to unpack core behaviours, traumas, and childhood issues — helping you understand why you are the way you are and how your family dynamics have shaped you.
What Is Psychodynamic Therapy?
Psychodynamic Therapy is a holistic approach that explores how past experiences affect current functioning, investigating the unconscious mind to bring lasting insight and change. Through this deeper work, we uncover the roots of patterns, relationships, and behaviours that no longer serve you.
This approach provides greater clarity and answers to things that previously didn't make sense to you. I help highlight and bring forward unconscious patterns, revealing connections between thoughts and behaviours in your life that you didn't even realise were linked. Together, we work on processing these discoveries in healthy, holistic, yet evidence-based ways that create lasting transformation.
