Counselling & Psychotherapy
Counselling & Psychotherapy at Live Life Happy Therapy
Do you ever find yourself stuck in the same patterns, no matter how hard you try to change? Or perhaps you’re facing a challenge right now that feels overwhelming, and you’re not sure where to turn.
Life can bring periods of stress, anxiety, sadness, or emotional overwhelm that are difficult to manage alone. At times, this can leave you feeling drained, uncertain, or disconnected from yourself or others. Therapy offers a safe, supportive space to pause, make sense of what’s happening, and begin to move forward.
I am a UKCP-accredited psychotherapist, offering counselling and psychotherapy to support both present-day difficulties and deeper, longer-standing patterns.
Counselling
Counselling focuses on the challenges you are facing right now. It is often shorter-term and can be helpful when you feel stuck, overwhelmed, or unsure how to move forward.
Counselling provides space to explore your thoughts and feelings around specific issues, such as stress, anxiety, low mood, relationship difficulties, or life changes. It offers support and perspective, helping you feel less alone with what you’re experiencing.
Psychotherapy
Psychotherapy offers a deeper, more exploratory approach. It looks at longer-standing patterns and experiences that may be shaping how you feel, think, and relate to others, often outside of conscious awareness.
Together, we may explore both past and present experiences to better understand emotional responses or behaviours that feel difficult to change. This work can support lasting change, greater emotional balance, and healthier relationships.
Finding the right support for you
I work primarily in a longer-term with clients while also offering short-term therapy where this feels more appropriate. The work is paced carefully, with attention to safety, trust, and your individual needs.
My approach is grounded in Schema Therapy and EMDR, supporting work with trauma, emotional patterns, and experiences that can feel complex or deeply rooted. Alongside this, I integrate mindfulness, meditation, and somatic informed practices to support emotional regulation, awareness, and resilience.
I work predominantly with people experiencing trauma and relationship difficulties, including those with complex or long-standing issues. The focus is on helping you understand yourself more deeply, reduce distress, and move towards meaningful and lasting change.
Alongside my own work, I collaborate with trusted associate therapists who specialise in relationship therapy and EMDR. Each brings their own individual approach, allowing clients to access the right support when availability is limited.
