I am a counselling psychologist who has a broad experience in both psychology and psychotherapy. When working together I will always prioritise your individual needs. Even though I have my own style of therapy I will always make sure to collaborate with you and to be as flexible as needed so we are always on the same page when working together.

My work draws on EMDR, trauma-focused, compassion-focused, and mindfulness-based approaches, matched to what's genuinely useful for you.
If small things send you spiralling, you feel disconnected from yourself, or you've been carrying something heavy for as long as you can remember — these are experiences I work with often. I'm Dr Larissa Johnson, a Forensic Psychologist specialising in trauma, complex PTSD, and personality difficulties. I work with adults who carry the weight of difficult histories.
Maybe you're reliving painful memories, caught in cycles of shame or self-criticism, or feel that your emotions are too much. Maybe you've been told your difficulties are "complex" without ever feeling truly understood. If this resonates, I'd love to hear from you.

Hi, I'm Asher. I'm a queer therapist working online with LGBTQIA+ people across the UK, from my home near Newcastle upon Tyne.
My practice is informed by lived experience of queerness, neurodiversity, disability and the mental health system. This includes personal experience of therapy that has been deeply helpful, practices that have caused harm, and many spaces in between.
I’m also autistic and was diagnosed as an adult, so I have a particular interest in working with late-diagnosed, self-diagnosed and questioning non-neurotypical people.

My work combines CBT and trauma-focused therapy with a focus on sustainable behavioural change in areas such as stress, health and daily functioning.
Most people I work with are functioning well on the outside, but struggling internally with burnout, chronic stress, anxiety or the impact of trauma. You may be managing work and responsibilities, yet feel constantly switched on exhausted, or stuck in patterns that aren’t changing. Despite this, you continue to cope, which often means the difficulty goes unseen for longer than it should. I specialise in helping people understand and change these patterns using structured, evidence-based approaches.

Hello, and thanks for taking a look at my profile. I know how difficult it can be to sift through profiles and take that first step towards reaching out, especially when feeling scared, stuck or overwhelmed. Having worked with people for nearly 15 years, I’m interested in how our experiences, including past or present trauma, influence the way we relate to ourselves, others, the world around us, and how we find meaning in our lives. I offer a safe, supportive and non-judgemental space to explore these experiences and work towards meaningful change.

I work in collaboration with my clients to find what they would like to bring into the therapy room and have a particular interest in personal identities and how my clients wish to be seen and accepted in the world. This includes identities around chronic illness and disability, as well as around gender, sexuality and relationship diversity. I do not work as a blank mirror but instead use my knowledge and training to create a dialogue between me and my clients.
