As we progress, when you are ready, we may process distress held in memory using EMDR, Attachment-Focussed EMDR and IFS methods.
It's empowering to understand the stories that our minds hold about our sense of safety, security, worth, control and belonging. These stories were created in the past, when your mind tried to make meaning from experiences that felt scary, unsafe or out of our control. Your mind holds on to these stories as a way of protecting you from being hurt in the future, and replays them when it predicts future danger or suffering. But that's not the whole story. Using evidence-based, neuroscientific psychological approaches, we can begin to uncover these stories, process traumatic memory, distress and disturbance, and heal psychic wounds.

My practice weaves together Narrative Therapy, Art Therapy, ACT, EMDR, mindfulness and parts work.
I enjoy working with all kinds of adults and the multitude of difficulties we humans face in our lives and relationships.
But my particular skill is in working with people who believe that what they carry is too complex for anyone to help but somehow keep looking for someone who can.
I often attract people who need a therapist who both understands "mental illness" through the psychiatric system lens and sees the "symptoms" people experience not as problems but as unique survival adaptations we do not yet understand.

Drawing on Emotion Focused Therapy, EMDR, Family Therapy, and the Gottman method, I adapt support to each person, couple or family.
Life often looks fine from the outside, but underneath there’s tension, confusion, or distance in relationships that feels hard to name. Many of the people I see are trying to understand why the same patterns keep repeating. The same arguments, disconnection, or sense of being misunderstood. Some are individuals feeling lost or unsure, others are couples or families struggling to communicate. There’s usually a mix of care, frustration, and hope that things could be different. What unites them is a wish for clarity, calm, and connection. To feel understood, supported, and able to move forward in healthier ways.

EMDR Therapists
Who is EMDR for?
EMDR was initially developed as a treatment for individuals with Post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), for whom memories of a deeply distressing experience can be inadvertently triggered by random everyday events. The procedure has since been applied in the treatment of many other conditions. For example, it is used by some therapists to treat anxiety disorders including panic and phobias, depression, dissociative disorders, eating disorders, obsessive-compulsive disorders, and some personality disorders. It is suitable for adolescents and adults.
Why do people need EMDR?
People need EMDR as a way to manage distressing memories that in some way hamper the ability to function in the present. The procedure is believed to target the way memories are stored in the brain. Evidence indicates that past disturbing experiences cause ongoing distress because they were not adequately processed, and when such memories are triggered in the present, they are accompanied by all the emotions, thoughts, and physical sensations as the initial experience.
What problems does EMDR treat?
First and foremost, EMDR is intended as a treatment for PTSD, to defuse distressing memories that intrude on and impair everyday functioning. It is also often used to help those who are subject to panic attacks, phobias, and other forms of anxiety. In addition, EMDR has been used to treat individuals with depression, eating disorders, and personality disorders.
What happens in EMDR therapy?
First the therapist takes an individual’s history, and then the therapist and client decide which distressing experience(s) will be the target(s) of the exercise, delivered via a side-to-side visual stimulus requiring lateral eye movements. The client will be asked to activate thoughts, feelings, and any body sensations related to the troubling experience. The eye movements are said to reduce the emotional charge of the memory, so that the experience can then be safely discussed with the therapist and digested, minimising its ability to trigger anxiety.
