about

what I do

Hello, my name is Avril, and I am a therapist.

I believe therapy allows you to take time out, to focus on yourself.

The world is speeding up. We all experience busy lifestyles. As we push ourselves more and more, psychologically and physically, we face disease, disharmony and distress.

I aim to provide a safe space for people to reconnect with their body, mind and spirit. By providing psychological therapy and helping you to cultivate body awareness, to aid your move towards ease, harmony and de-stress.

the idea

After working in the field of mental health for many years, for various organisations, and training as a Counselling Psychologist and Massage Therapist, I decided to set up a private practice.

Also, personally experiencing the benefits of psychological therapy and body practices, working independently allows me to work in a way that is informed by my experiences, not constrained by the agenda of institutions. Instead it creates space to work in a way that best suits the individual. I believe “everybody needs a space.”

space for you

I know that you matter.

It is easy to forget that we matter. Caught up in the rat race, we place money, objects or other people ahead of our wellbeing. We push ourselves to breaking point, instead of taking a break.

I will work with you to find out what you want from treatment and how I can best facilitate your space.

I will support you and remind you that you matter. So give yourself the space that you need to look after yourself. Have a look at my services and get in contact if you think I could help. If you only take away one fact from this website, please let it be that you matter.
