Work with me
Up to 50% of the success of therapy can be attributed to the working relationship between you and your therapist*.
Let me introduce myself.
I’m Ali, and together we may just do great things, so we should probably get to know each other…
I’m not going to give you my life story,
but I will tell you that, as someone who has been around for over half a century, I’ve experienced much of what life has to offer; both good and bad.
I’ve experienced the wonderful joys of love, marriage, parenthood, success, joy, sisterhood and friendship. I’ve experienced the crushing lows of sadness, betrayal, failure, feeling lost, bad choices, confusion and every other emotion one can imagine – because that’s life! Through that and sometimes because of that, I can genuinely say, I’m a happy human.
Let me explain…being a happy human does not mean everything is perfect, or that you’re perfect. No. I’m talking deep rooted, purposeful, full spectrum living; where you know what your skills, resources and brilliance are. You engage with life in a way that brings joy and meaning. You’ll know your frailties, weaknesses and shadow side too and you’ll accept that. To be a truly happy human, you’ll find a way to embrace all that is you.
Work with me
Whatever brought you here, please know, working together, we always work with your vision and goals in mind. This is your time to heal your past, deal with what’s holding you back and reveal the truest, happiest and most integrated you.
The solution focused approach acknowledges and honours your past. The therapy focuses on both making the here and now more manageable and building a future that you can’t wait to experience. It’s positive, real life, practical and often enjoyable. Don’t be surprised if we laugh when we’re working. Expect me to gently challenge you. You’re going to learn what and who are important to you, what makes your heart sing. You’re almost certainly going to surprise yourself with skills, strengths and understanding you never imagined. You’ll find compassion for you and those around you. You’ll develop resilience, boundaries and motivation. But most of all…
You’ll uncover someone who you really like and will always take care of in the future; the true you – a happy human.
In over a decade of working one to one I’ve helped people resolve decades old trauma, eliminate limiting beliefs, heal broken hearts, embrace new ways of living, discover their strengths, find their confidence, break free from fear, find love, conquer anxiety, rise up from depression, find themselves, forgive themselves and accept themselves.
There are so many paths to becoming a happy human, our job is to find yours.

All sessions last approximately 60 minutes and payment is prior to each session or first session if you have opted for a package of sessions. Whilst it would be both impossible and unethical for me to state exactly how many sessions of therapy you’ll need, we will discuss the typical number required for the issue you want help with.
