Hello, I’m Jules. I'm a senior clinical psychologist with over 16 years of experience working across a wide range of NHS mental health services. I am offering EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitisation and Reprocessing) therapy. EMDR helps people recover from distressing events and the problems they have caused, like flashbacks, upsetting thoughts or images, depression or anxiety. EMDR is also recognised by the National Institute for Health and Care Excellence (NICE) as an evidence-based treatment for post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) and complex post-traumatic stress disorder (C-PTSD). I am HCPC registered and Enhanced DBS checked.

I am an Integrative therapist which means I use various therapies and tailor the therapy to your needs, as we all are individuals and I feel an indIvidual approach offers the bespoke service clients require. Some people may respond well to CBT or DBT, others prefer a more Humanistic approach. The Psychodynamic approach works well when looking into our core thoughts and TA works wonders with communication. I work collaboratively with the client to get the best results for you.

I am an integrative counsellor, being able to look at a person as a whole is so important, to understand the past, present and future. It is really important for me that you feel safe and non judged so that we can truly explore and work on the problems that you bring. In the understanding we find from what is going on we can then look into what strategies and resources we can put in place to help you manage the present. It isn't about finding perfect as it doesn't exist but getting through life the best we can and counselling can help you do that!

I have completed further training in Behavioural Family Therapy for psychosis and bipolar, as well as various areas to support provision of therapy to more conditions and situations.
Hi, I’m Jonathan. As a Clinical Psychologist I can help if you're struggling with stress, low mood, anxiety, panic, feelings of shame, low self‑esteem, and more. If you’re feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or disconnected from your sense of purpose, I provide a compassionate space to explore this and support you towards meaningful change. Whether you're navigating relationship difficulties, grappling with identity, sexuality, or aspects of neurodiversity such as ADHD and autism - we can work to make sense and overcome issues. As a foster carer, I also bring unique insight into the emotional impact of fostering and adoption.

We are all able to agree that our physical health is variable, but it may be much harder to admit that our psychological health is in constant flux. All too often, we find ourselves buying into the idea of the "stiff upper lip": that "mental health issues" affect only other people - and "weak people", at that! It can be very daunting, therefore, to recognise that we need help and then to take steps to find a professional who will help things improve. I understand those concerns, because I've been there: and I also have experience of the positive effects of psychotherapy - from both sides of the consulting-room!

Psychosis Counsellors
What’s the most effective treatment for psychosis?
The most effective treatment for psychosis is coordinated specialty care. In this model, a team of professionals works with a patient to address all aspects of the underlying disorder. This approach incorporates individual or group therapy, employment and education support, family support and education, medication management (which often involves low doses of antipsychotics), and case management to facilitate problem-solving as needed.

When should people seek treatment for psychosis?
People should seek immediate treatment at the earliest indication of psychosis. Symptoms include delusions, hallucinations, disorganized or blocked speech, and agitated body movements. Early signs that a person may be developing a disorder that will lead to psychosis include suspiciousness of others, memory problems and distractibility, an inability to think clearly, rapid or nonsensical speech, withdrawal from friends or family, aggression toward others, and sensitivity to bright lights or noises.

What if psychosis is left untreated?
Without treatment, psychosis can have significant repercussions, including injuries, job loss, homelessness, financial or legal trouble, ruptured relationships, and suffering for the person and their family. While early treatment for psychosis often yields the best results, there is no point past which it becomes useless to seek treatment. At any point, treatment can make a difference.

How do I get someone else to seek treatment for psychosis?
It’s extremely difficult to watch a loved one suffer from hallucinations, delusions, and other elements of psychosis—sometimes exacerbated by their fears of treatment. Have a conversation with them in a quiet space and maintain a calm, supportive tone. Share your concerns about behaviors you’ve observed, suggest treatment, and explain the potential benefits. Listen carefully to their responses. The person may not be ready after one conversation, but with time, they may come around.
