About me and my therapy practice
Working with myself in 90min session blocks, we will explore the most important relationship you will ever have, the one with yourself. Starting with the question of "who are you with/without the trauma?"
An important question I invite you to ponder, if you have spent years living in a dysfunctional way (Or a functional-dysfunctional way) making way for potential symptoms such as anxiety, imposter syndrome, ruptured platonic/romantic relationships and other psychological distresses.
I have experience of working with clients who present with dual diagnoses. For example a client may be diagnosed with hearing voices or psychosis and have been able to manage it well over time. However, now wish to take up talking therapy to gain a deeper awareness of how their experiences have impacted their self esteem and core identity within the context of the world.
While talking therapy is not suitable to diagnose or address any symptoms themselves, the therapeutic space can be used to explore what it has been like to live with a mental health diagnosis.
You will find:
- I am kink aware
- I am aware of the nuisances of navigating society with the complexities of gender expectations
- I am a Black mental health therapist
- I am competent in working integratively with the intersections of trauma which might show up as anxiety within the body
- I am experienced in working with clients who have dual diagnoses (Talking therapy is not suitable to diagnose any severe mental health distress).
Practice description
From the comfort of your space, I explore the pivotal question of "Who are you with/without the trauma?" In each online 90mins session.
The nature of my therapeutic work is a person-centred integrative approach, pulling on key concepts from Gestalt and Psychodynamic.
In my therapeutic practice, counselling sessions delicately explore the intersections of trauma with the other parts of the human experience to include race, sexuality, gender and other identity that comes up when you ponder on who you are and who are you becoming?"
My first session
Available to all new clients is an initial free 20 mins phone call to explore how we may work together.
In the first counselling session, we will spend the first 15mins discussing the counselling contract, which will outline the nature of our sessions, how I manage your data, session times, cancellation policy, planned holidays and more. As the client, you can ask to revisit the agreed nature of our sessions at anytime.
