About Me
I am a Psychosynthesis Psychotherapist. I offer a warm and compassionate space for those seeking personal growth, healing and self-discovery. I help guide you through life's challenges, helping you reconnect with your inner strengths to move towards greater fulfilment and authenticity.
My entry into this profession was the result of my own experience with Psychotherapy and the personal growth it provided me. My chronic overthinking was creating anxiety in all aspects of my life. I was my own worst enemy and my fear-based perspective would habitually destroy my hopes and dreams, before they ever got started. Ultimately, I was living in a very limited world. Working with a Psychotherapist helped me identify and target my triggers of overthinking and develop strategies for managing them. This allowed me to start living from a more spacious place of freedom and peace. I now profit from this growth everyday, making the choice to be the best person I can be, for my wife and children.
What is Psychosynthesis?
Psychosynthesis is a holistic approach to therapy that integrates the mind, body, emotions and spirit. It goes beyond traditional talk therapy by exploring deeper levels of self-awareness and purpose. Whether you're feeling stuck, struggling with anxiety, depression or navigating a life transition, Psychosynthesis helps you connect with your inner resources and align with your highest potential. This Transpersonal Psychology acknowledges that life challenges can serve as opportunities for deeper growth and transformation.
How I Work
I approach therapy as a creative and dynamic process, adapting my methods to meet your unique needs. No two individuals are the same, so I tailor each session to where you are and what you need at that moment. Whether you’re exploring deep emotional challenges or seeking clarity on life’s direction, our work evolves to reflect your journey.
I intentionally incorporate the right side of your brain, associated with intuition, imagination and holistic thinking. This creative and experiential approach helps you move beyond overthinking, into a more embodied, practical way of being. Allowing you to shift unhelpful habits, develop tools to navigate life’s challenges and cultivate peace and authenticity in your daily life.
Examples of creative methods I use:
-
Visualisation and Imagery - exploring your inner landscape through guided imagery to unlock insights and emotions that words alone may not access.
-
Practical Exercises - introducing activities during and between sessions, to encourage actionable steps toward growth and clarity.
-
Body Awareness - tuning into physical sensations to connect with emotions stored in your body, fostering a deeper understanding of yourself.
Using these techniques helps bring unconscious thoughts and feelings into the present moment, integrating them into your conscious awareness.
I believe therapy is a collaborative process. I am not an expert on your life, you are. My role is to hold a safe, supportive and non-judgmental space where all aspects of you are welcome, including the parts that feel vulnerable or confused. However, whilst our work together is grounded in compassion and understanding, I sometimes gently challenge you when necessary. This compassionate challenge is key to breaking through unhelpful patterns, defence mechanisms or limiting beliefs that may be holding you back. This process often leads to profound insights, helping you to understand and integrate all parts of yourself, including those that may feel conflicted or wounded.

Life Coaching for Overthinkers
We live in a very heady society. With disconnection through technology and the countless decisions we have to make every day, it's hard not to fall victim to overthinking.
Worry and uncertainty are the fuel of overthinking. The torrent of thoughts can range from over analysis, obsessive, fear based, perfectionistic, rumination, excessively negative, catastrophic and fixated on control. All of which create unproductive mental exhaustion. They can also promote further conditions such as depression, social anxiety, health anxiety, panic disorder, OCD and PTSD.
Overthinking can also cause relationship issues and controlling behaviours. Conflict arises when jumping to incorrect conclusions based on assuming the worst and obsessing over the minutiae of people's actions and words.
​
Our sessions will help you identify the underlying causes of your overthinking and develop coping strategies tailored to your needs. Allowing you to gain insight into your behaviour and learn how to better manage your thoughts, emotions and reactions. Overthinking can greatly reduce one's quality of life. Through self-awareness and personal growth, one can start to enjoy a more fulfilling and peaceful life. I work in person or online and offer a free 15 minute discovery session.
Craniosacral Therapy for Overthinkers
Craniosacral Therapy (CST) is a non-invasive, hands-on technique that aims to enhance the body's natural healing processes and settle the nervous system. It focuses on the cerebrospinal fluid and the membranes surrounding the brain and spinal cord, collectively known as the craniosacral system.

How Craniosacral Therapy Works
Balancing the Craniosacral Rhythm - CST practitioners use light touch to detect and gently manipulate the craniosacral rhythm. This rhythm corresponds to the subtle movement of cerebrospinal fluid, which nourishes and protects the central nervous system.
Releasing Tension and Restrictions - Overthinkers often accumulate tension in the body, especially in the neck, shoulders and head. CST aims to release restrictions in these areas, promoting relaxation and alleviating stress-related symptoms.
Facilitating the Body's Self-Healing Mechanisms - CST promotes the body's innate ability to heal itself. By enhancing the function of the craniosacral system, the therapy encourages self-correction and promotes overall well-being.
​
Benefits for Overthinkers
Stress Reduction - CST's gentle touch can induce a state of deep relaxation, helping overthinkers unwind and release accumulated stress. The aim is to rebalance the nervous system and release energy blockages.
Improved Sleep Quality - Many overthinkers struggle with insomnia or restless sleep. CST can contribute to better sleep quality by promoting a sense of calm and balance.
Enhanced Mental Clarity - By releasing tension in the head and neck, CST can contribute to improved mental clarity, allowing overthinkers to approach thoughts with a more balanced perspective.
Emotional Release - Overthinking is often tied to unresolved emotions. CST can facilitate the release of emotional tension, providing a safe space for emotional processing.
​
What to Expect During a Session
Clothing and Environment - CST is performed with the client fully clothed on a comfortable massage table.
Light Touch - A light touch is used to detect and address imbalances in the craniosacral system. Palpating movements and rhythms on different parts of the body.
Sensations - During the session, you may experience sensations such as warmth, pulsations or subtle movements. These are normal responses to the therapy.
Post-Session Integration - After the session, it's common to feel relaxed yet alert. Some people may experience emotional release, while others feel a sense of lightness and increased energy.
Combined with Life Coaching (1.5 hours) - Sessions will last approximately 40 minutes, allowing the remaining 50 minutes to be used for coaching. These sessions can be very powerful as after CST, clients feel especially clear over the next steps to take them forward.
If overthinking has become a persistent challenge in your life, exploring complementary therapies like Craniosacral Therapy could offer a unique and gentle way to address both the physical and emotional aspects of the issue.
