I have a particular interest in supporting people with breaking free from codependent patterns of relating and learning to prioritise their own needs first , working towards understanding the origins of these patterns and coping skills in order to move forward. We may work specifically around the need for implementing boundaries and self care.
I can guide and support individuals dealing with codependency by facilitating creative processes that encourage self-exploration, fostering self-awareness, and empowering them to establish healthy boundaries and cultivate self-care practices.

I deal with Codependency especially to help sufferers to stop rescuing unnecessarily and to uncover Love Avoidant Addicts and Love Seeker Addicts to gain a healthier lifestyle and to enjoy fuller healthier relationships with others.
I find that this painful way of relating occurs frequently in the lives of the clients who come to see me. Through exploring what is often an underlying trauma we can get to the bottom of why we relate in this way, often finding new and more nourishing ways of being in relationship
