If you’re struggling with anxiety, depression, loss, trauma, or another emotional difficulty, I offer a safe, understanding space where you can begin to make sense of what you’re going through and start the process of healing. Many of the people I work with describe feeling overwhelmed by their thoughts, stuck in unhelpful patterns, or weighed down by self-criticism or painful memories. Others find themselves disconnected from who they are, unsure how to move forward after loss or change. Whatever you’re facing, I will meet you with empathy and respect — helping you to find clarity, relief, and new ways of coping.

Having navigated anxiety, OCD, and childhood trauma myself, I specialise in supporting clients with similar experiences. I integrate trauma-focused therapies including EMDR, an evidence-based psychotherapy for trauma and PTSD, and Internal Family Systems (IFS), which promotes healing through self-compassion and connection with inner parts. I also draw on CBT, Exposure, and Mindfulness to offer practical tools for emotional regulation, perspective-shifting, and everyday coping.

Are you tired of wondering if and when things will get better? Working with me offers more than just coping strategies, it is a space for real healing and growth. Are you carrying the weight of past experiences that still affect your present life? You may feel broken, stuck, or like no one truly understands what you’ve been through. Perhaps you experience flashbacks, dissociation, emotional numbness, panic, or sudden shifts in mood that feel out of your control. You may have already tried therapy, self-help, or coping strategies, but still feel as though the impact of trauma lingers beneath the surface.

If you're struggling with anxiety, depression, trauma, or relationship challenges, you’re not alone. Past experiences - especially those tied to attachment - can shape how we feel, think, and connect with others. You may be searching for ways to heal from trauma, manage symptoms of complex PTSD, or navigate the difficulties of personality or eating disorders. More than anything, you want to feel safe, understood, and empowered to build a more fulfilling life.

I am a qualified psychotherapist, life coach, trainer and supervisor, with over 25 years experience in private practice. I work with adults who may be encountering life's stressors to a greater-than-usual degree or may be struggling to find their way forward in a diverse range of circumstances. These may be from personal or professional sources but usually involve our own, perhaps not very helpful, habitual ways of dealing with such difficulties - we all can revert to old habits in times of trouble. I am available to do both short- and long-term work according to need.

Richard Higgs Therapy
Psychotherapist, MBACP
My priority is to provide a safe, non-judgemental, and confidential space for you to just ‘be’ without any expectation, so you can explore any issues or struggles that are impacting your life. You may know what these struggles are, or you may not have the words or an understanding of what is going on for you. And that is okay. You may come to therapy with a set idea of what you want to explore, or you may come to therapy with just a hunch that something isn’t right. Therapy isn’t linear but I’ll be transparent in our work together and guide you in what can be difficult but ultimately enlightening work.

Psychotherapist, MBACP Accred
Life is difficult. Every day you face a thousand intangible threats to your mental well-being and self-esteem. Your brain reacts, creating a collection of sensations which we call anxiety. Sometimes you feel hopeless-there's no way out of trouble and you feel yourself becoming more withdrawn, isolated and depressed. Or, perhaps living with the person you love is impossible. Talking things over with family or friends can help. But you may have reasons why that's not appropriate or you need specific specialist help. Then is the time to speak with an impartial, trained, professional, in confidence.
