Mary-Anne works to help restructure those aspects of a person’s self that have been damaged, arrested or traumatised, so that they can experience feelings of joy and optimism. Therapy with Mary-Anne is a conversation, one that fosters development of the self and can transform damaged and traumatised parts of the self. This is an empathic way of working, which draws on the theories of early childhood development and Attachment Theory, Trauma Theory and Self Psychology. Mary-Anne’s approach is eclectic, drawing from many theoretical perspectives and dependent on the needs of the client.
