About

I am a therapist for adults whose circumstances have changed and who are trying to work out who they are on the other side of it. My clients are usually functioning perfectly well on paper and privately unsure what they are doing. Starting over at any age is less romantic than the phrase suggests. It involves a long stretch of not being good at things you used to be good at, and a corresponding hit to a sense of yourself that had been reliable for years. We take that seriously rather than hurrying you toward optimism. Optimism arrives on its own once the practical ground underneath you is steadier. I did a stretch in administration before coming back to clinical work, which meant rebuilding a set of skills I had let go quiet. It was humbling and useful in roughly equal measure, so I have some real feeling for how slow that is. If you are rebuilding something, get in touch.
