Like many people I found the idea of going to a therapist pretty daunting. Firstly, recognising that I needed help was difficult enough, but the thought of opening up to a stranger and revealing all my anxieties and insecurities was terrifying. That is why Anna is such a wonderful therapist. I immediately felt relaxed with Anna and most importantly she listens! And believe me I had plenty of stuff to get off my chest. I can honestly say that Anna has changed my life. I was in a serious rut, feeling low, my confidence shot to pieces. Anna has not only guided me towards the light at the end of the tunnel - she has helped me leave the tunnel behind forever. She is truly an exceptional person and someone I can't recommend highly enough.

Here is an extract from my latest blog posting:
The fundamental misconception here is our culture’s determination to confuse love with dependency at every opportunity. They are not the same, but right from day dot we are force-fed the idea that they are. Here’s a selection of dangerous lies that you will have heard over and over:
‘I can’t live without him/her’
‘If I can’t have him/her I don’t want anyone else’
‘If I can’t have him/her, I don’t want anyone else to have them either’
‘Life seems so empty without him/her’
Anyone who has not felt one or all of those at some point is a) not from a Western culture or b) Eckhart Tolle. But none of the above has anything remotely to do with love.
Oddly enough I’ve just been emailing someone I met recently on the subject of love (what synchronicity). She asked me to define what I thought love was and I wrote the following:
‘......It is actually something that the vast majority of us can only really aspire to, rather than necessarily attain. As a culture, we are very good at attachment, or what the Greeks called 'cathexis'; that comes easily to us. However since attachment is all about fear - 'I am attached to you, because you give me something that I fear losing' - it is the antithesis of love. Therefore most of what we call love is really attachment.
