It is often when we feel the most comfortable and at ease, does our authentic-self seep out. This is you unfiltered, unapologetic and unscripted. However, how many times do we allow ourselves to experience this? Not very often, right? Many of us wonder through life wearing a mask, trying to uphold the image we have learnt to create for ourselves - whether it’s the ‘trying-to-keep-it-together parent/partner’, the ‘reliable, always there for you friend’ or the ‘ambitious, life-goals-in-hand determined individual’.

Hello, I’m Melissa and I am one of the clinical psychologists here at Willow Psychology. Taking the first step to reach out for support can feel hard, as can knowing which therapist or approach is the best fit for you. So I am really glad that you have found your way to this page. I aim to create a relationship of safety, non-judgement and openness in therapy. During the assessment session we can think together about what you would like to be different in your life and reconnect with your values and what is meaningful to you.

Whatever the reason you are seeking therapy I will offer a safe and non-judgmental space for us to explore the difficulties you might be facing in your life. I bring a relational and empathic approach to the work. In other words, I am simply myself and I welcome whoever you are and whatever you may wish to bring. I believe such a relationship can prove to be the reparative foundation for the change and growth you seek.

" Knowing your own darkness is the best method for dealing with the darknesses of other people." C Jung - Life events, experiences and relationships can have an impact on how we feel within ourselves making it difficult to cope day to day. Therapy can help us understand these experiences, helping one gain insight and perspective. Gaining understanding can be powerful and prompt change. I work with my client to identify issues within their life that may contribute to distress or problems.

Hello and welcome. Starting therapy can feel daunting but also incredibly liberating once you get started. I offer a warm and welcoming environment where together we can explore what is troubling you and seek to ultimately find relief through this process. With nine years of experience working with clients who have sought to make sense of their life, I am able to help by walking alongside you in your journey, whether this is for a short while or longer-term. In our time together, we will uncover what lies behind your anxieties and try out strategies that may support you as you work through the challenges you are facing.

If you are struggling with anxiety, depression or stress, I would like to help you find your own unique way of overcoming these emotional difficulties , and offer you the space to explore how it's really like for you at the moment. My wish is that you come to create the life and relationships that you yearn for, including a positive relationship with yourself. Trained as a person-centred counsellor , I have several years experience working for a mental health charity and in private practice.

The most important thing I can do for you is to help you understand yourself better, to know why you do the things you do and find certain situations difficult. I work with people who want to understand why they can't assert themselves, find enjoyment in life, make friends, recover from bereavement or the end of a relationship, why they get so angry, have addictions, obsessions and intrusive thoughts or why they don't know what to do about a partner who is controllling or abusive. Alternatively, I can offer EMDR, which is a treatment for trauma and other experiences from the recent or distant past which have adversely affected you.
