About KGPS
Valuing Ourselves
We all experience stress and emotional upheaval at some point in our life. These are the times it is most important to feel heard, understood and valued.
In therapy, it is also essential to develop a good therapeutic relationship, building trust and collaboration in our work together.
This is the basis of my practice where a warm and non-judgemental approach is offered, with respect for personal values, life styles and diversity across all ages. Whether working with individuals, couples or families we will aim to explore the things you wish to change in yourself, your life and your relationships.
Every one of us is unique and we will work together so that your therapy is tailored to your needs, goals and preferences. As the full range of human neurodiversity is increasingly recognised and understood, our differences are to be celebrated and valued.
