Which part of you is talking
Most conflict isn't about the subject at hand. It's about which part of us shows up to have the conversation, Parent, Adult, or Child, and whether we notice in time to choose differently.

Some are designed to support the work we do in therapy. Others are simply things I've found useful in my own practice and wanted to make available.
Guides and interactive tools drawn directly from Transactional Analysis. An ongoing collection, growing as each new piece is ready.

They make room for real contact. A boundary held clearly, without punishment attached, tends to bring people closer rather than further off.
What it creates is space, room to notice when you're reacting instead of responding, and to try something different even if it feels unfamiliar.
It rarely started as your own voice. Part of the work is finding out where it came from, and deciding how much say it still gets.
A short guide for each way of working with me, so you know roughly what to expect before you book.
What to expect from a first individual therapy session, how we'll spend the time, and what you don't need to prepare in advance.
What a first session looks like when you come as a couple or family, and how we start finding a shared way in.
What to expect from an initial supervision session, whether you're a trainee, newly qualified, or established.
These resources work best alongside sessions. If you'd like to talk about what's coming up for you, I'm here.
