You don't have to keep feeling this way
Anxiety and depression are two of the most common reasons people seek therapy — and also two of the most isolating. You might find yourself lying awake at night with a mind that won't slow down, dreading situations that others seem to handle effortlessly, or feeling a heaviness that makes even small tasks feel overwhelming. Perhaps you've been managing it for so long that it's started to feel like just who you are.
It isn't. And you don't have to keep carrying it alone.
Anxiety and depression rarely stay in one area of life. They can affect your relationships, your work, your sense of self-worth, and your ability to enjoy the things that used to matter to you. Common experiences include:
- Persistent worry or a sense of dread that's hard to switch off
- Low mood, tearfulness, or feeling emotionally numb
- Difficulty concentrating, making decisions, or feeling motivated
- Physical symptoms such as tension, fatigue, or disrupted sleep
- Withdrawing from people or activities you once valued
- A harsh inner critic that tells you you're not good enough
Whether your anxiety feels like constant background noise or comes in waves of panic, and whether your depression is a recent development or something you've lived with for years, therapy can help.
How I work with anxiety and depression
My approach is rooted in Relational Transactional Analysis, drawing also on humanistic and psychodynamic thinking. Rather than simply managing symptoms, we work together to understand where your anxiety or depression comes from — the patterns, the early experiences, and the beliefs about yourself and the world that may be quietly driving how you feel today.
This isn't about telling you what to think or giving you a list of techniques to follow. It's about creating a genuinely safe, collaborative space where you can begin to understand yourself more deeply and, over time, relate to yourself with greater compassion and ease.
I offer both face-to-face therapy in Horsham and secure online sessions across West Sussex and the UK.
