Cutting contact with your family of origin is rarely done lightly, and might be one of the most difficult things you ever do. Even if you're sure you don't want to see them again, the idea of stopping all forms of family support can be daunting - regardless of the strings you know are attached.

One of my key areas of interest is supporting people who are either estranged from family or who are considering, or preparing to go, low or no-contact. I believe therapy for estrangement has two parts: pre-estrangement, and post. Making a decision and following through on it, including writing your goodbye letter, email, or text, is a journey in itself, but the support you receive afterwards, while you're rebuilding your life, is equally important.

I offer counselling to support you through deciding how much or little contact you want to have, with no judgement either way. If you'd like a 15 minute chat to see if you feel we're a good fit, reach out to me on my Contact page page.
