I work sensitively with adults struggling with childhood Trauma, ADHD, and Anxiety.
I have extensive experience working with adults coping with the challenges of ADHD in later life. My clients have described feeling nervous about fidgeting in sessions, going off on tangents, and interrupting in sessions; does this sound familiar?

My name is Rachel, and I am an Art Psychotherapist based in Colchester, Essex. I have an MA in Art Psychotherapy from Goldsmiths College, University of London.
I practise using a non-directive psychodynamic approach, which means you are free to use the art materials in your own way. This method encourages exploration of how past experiences may influence your current thoughts, feelings, and behaviours.
Through this process, we can build trust, self-awareness, and help you better understand your emotions and behaviours.

Hi there, my name is Ellie and I am a Counsellor specializing in trauma and the common coping skills that develop from it's effects. These include the areas of disordered eating, body image issues (including body dysmorphia), addiction (self-medicating to avoid the effects of trauma), being drawn to abusive relationships and patterns of becoming stuck and paralyzed in these damaging dynamics. The heart of my therapeutic work is to help clients discover their authentic self and to gently dis-engage from painful old beliefs they may have internalized from complex and overwhelming environments.

However I work a lot with men who are feeling depressed, anxious, struggling with confidence, anger, having difficulties with work and relationships or feeling dissatisfied with life.
That first step into counselling can feel daunting. My priority is to welcome you when we meet. I'm qualified, experienced and offer a half price first session, usually within a week of contact. Saturday and weekday sessions are available. We all find things hard at times in our lives. When we do, it can be good to work through our thoughts and feelings with someone who seeks to understand, not judge us, and offers helpful reflection on our situation.

My work is particularly suited for those navigating recovery from addiction or eating disorders, experiencing anxiety or depression, or feeling stuck in repeating patterns.
My path to becoming a psychotherapist and Jungian analyst has not been a straight line but a winding, often painful journey through the depths of my own suffering. Before I ever sat with another person in the therapist’s chair, I spent years confronting my struggles with mental illness—particularly addiction and eating disorders. These experiences weren’t just difficult chapters in my life; they were initiations into the world of the psyche, and they have profoundly shaped how I practice, how I listen, and how I hold space for others.
