Looking to get support for your mental health can be really difficult, and lots of things may be interfering or acting as barriers.

I specialise in providing high quality CBT and EMDR therapies, and can support you to work through a range of issues, including Post Traumatic Stress Disorder, Depression, Anxiety (OCD, Social Anxiety, Health Anxiety), Anger, Adjustment, or Parental Difficulties ( perinatal distress & Birth Trauma).

Hello, my name is Jodie. I have over 15 years experience working within the NHS and charity sectors. I specialise in work with adults and young people and really work hard to ensure each of my clients is offered thoughtful and individualised support. Within the NHS, I have worked in a number of settings which has allowed me to work with anxiety disorders and depression, trauma, psychosis, bipolar disorder, personality disorders and relationship difficulties across the life-span. Life can be hard and I believe that everyone could benefit from therapy at a number of points in their life, not just at the point of mental health crisis.

Life can be difficult, and the stories we tell ourselves can often limit and block us in leading the life we truly want to lead. Through my work as an integrative therapist, I draw on a variety of different approaches, to assist you in meeting your particular needs and goals. I use the relationship we gradually build together to shine a light on understanding other relationships in your life, to better understand yourself, and develop the resources to live more authentically.

Creative arts therapy is for adults, children, and babies. As in traditional talk therapy, we’ll use the sessions to form a relationship and focus on areas that have brought you to therapy. In the sessions you'll have the chance to use music or other art activities to share and express your emotions. Sometimes you might choose to use this as a springboard for talking, or it can be a way to explore and process when you’re not ready to verbally process yet.

Whatever has brought you here, welcome! I’m Charley, a Psychologist based in South West London. I have over 10 years’ experience supporting young people, adults and families facing difficult times in their lives. I offer a warm and down-to-earth approach and my main focus is on providing a safe and non-judgemental space to talk. My priority is that therapy is as helpful for you as possible so my approach is collaborative and open. I work with people from all walks of life and have a special interest in supporting those facing difficulties relating to pregnancy , birth and the early years of a child's life.

I am passionate about empowering clients to develop or strengthen their own sense of agency in the world, so that they feel in control. In order to do this, I work collaboratively with clients rather than acting as an expert. I walk alongside my clients in their therapeutic journey, rather than taking the lead and instructing which can at times feel disempowering. Whilst I use my knowledge and expertise to help clients consider new ways of viewing the world and offer guidance on ways they may consider changing their behaviours to better suit their needs, I do not act as an "expert" as I believe each person knows themselves best.

Relationships affect us from the cradle to the grave and can significantly shape how we value ourselves and how able we feel to trust others and to be vulnerable - opening up or shutting down connections.  The Room Between is a clinical psychology service that specialises in working with trauma and relationship issues - both with individuals and couples.We work with a variety of relationship issues including childhood trauma, abuse, infertility, miscarriage , bereavement, adjusting to parenthood, codependency, divorce and separation, lack of desire, the impact of abuse, neurodiversity, the aftermath of an affair and conflict.

I'm passionate about working with individuals rather than diagnoses. I want to explore how you got to where you are now; why you are struggling and feeling stuck; and then together we can help pave the way forward towards a more fulfilling and purposeful life.
