I accept insurance funded enquiries from Aviva, BUPA, Vitality and WPA.
I am Dr Carla Rainbow, and I am a Chartered Clinical Psychologist and a registered Counselling Psychotherapist (Dip TC, Dip SP&C, FD, BSc (Hons), PG Dip, MSc, DClinPsy, CPsychol, AFBPsS, Reg, MBACP, MSfDBT, EuroPsy). That means I am qualified to the very highest level, and experienced to be able to help you with even the most complex problems that you might be experiencing. On top of my experience (including in the NHS and prison services), and my qualifications, I work really hard at building effective working relationships, because research suggests that can be one of the most effective indicators for good therapeutic outcomes.

Many of my clients are adults who are neurodivergent or living with the impact of trauma. They might struggle with emotional dysregulation, cPTSD symptoms, anxiety, or low self-worth, often feeling misunderstood or overwhelmed by daily life. Some are managing ADHD or autism alongside a history of difficult experiences. What they want is to feel seen and accepted, to better understand themselves, and to develop strategies that bring stability, confidence, and self-kindness, while building healthier relationships and a stronger sense of identity..

My therapy practice centres around a belief in the transformative potential of experiencing connection and understanding with self and other. I believe one of the ways this can be achieved is through building an authentic professional therapeutic relationship based on qualities such as trust, acceptance and understanding. I prioritise the importance of working collaboratively at your pace and by your direction. My practice is informed by my person-centred and experiential training, and by my interest in working with the body, neuroscience, and through creative expression.

Welcome to my profile - My name is Cat and I'm an expert in developmental trauma and personality difficulties. These can lead to a range of mental health needs that I can support you with (like anxiety, anger, risky behaviours, psychosis...) and also unhelpful coping behaviours, such as self-harm and suicidal thoughts, substance use, relationship struggles, and on. My approach is to understand the 'why', to get the root cause of difficult experiences so that we know how to improve it. We will work on identifying unhelpful coping strategies and replace these with healthy ones so we can work on developing the life that you want.

One of my clients has been feeling down, depressed and demotivated. If irritated and short-tempered with people, especially with his wife. He could not find any reason for his feelings. Following the discussion with the client, he said he was a very motivated and active member of his family, but over the past couple of years, he had noticed some changes in his thinking and behaviour. He said that he also daydreams and ruminates a lot. As a result, he had been feeling frustrated and often angry with himself.

You’ve always been the capable one. High functioning, self aware, often the one others turn to for advice. But lately everything feels heavy. You’re burnt out, emotionally overloaded, and wondering who you are underneath all the coping. I work with women who look like they’re managing on the outside but feel anxious, overwhelmed, or stuck on the inside. This often shows up in motherhood, after difficult experiences like birth trauma, or during big life transitions. You might be tired of overthinking, holding everything together, and feeling like you’ve lost a sense of yourself.
