Are you experiencing anxiety, anger, or depression? If youre feeling overwhelmed, scared, or hurt, having a safe space where you can express yourself and feel understood could make a significant difference.
Do you need help with your relationship? Are you and your partner struggling to communicate effectively or arguing frequently? Perhaps a confidential and non-judgmental therapy session could help you discuss your issues in a safe environment.

Apart from my psychotherapy work, I also have 25 years of experience in the business industry and have worked as a marketing director in high-profile music companies, entertainment venues, and leisure experiences, which often entail high-pressure situations.
