I work in collaboration with my clients, using a solution focussed approach. The aim is to identify the problem along with causal factors and to develop a unique, person centred treatment plan. I have many years experience and very good outcome rates - many of my clients come from personal recommendation. I have worked in both the NHS and private settings since 2000 and am also a registered mental health nurse. I have worked with people from all backgrounds. My approach is open, non-judgemental and and down-to-earth.

I accept BUPA, AVIVA and AXA clients
As an accredited counsellor and psychotherapist, and an EMDR Europe Accredited Practitioner, I see my role as first and foremost understanding what each person actually needs. That can look quite different from one client to the next. I aim to offer a space that feels safe and non-judgmental, somewhere you can speak openly, even if you are not quite sure how to put things into words yet.

Hi, I’m Francesca Smith and I specialise in supporting women with busy, demanding lives who are struggling with trauma, OCD, low self‑esteem, burnout or perfectionistic patterns. Many of the people I work with feel overwhelmed, anxious & beaten down by self criticism. We work together on processing trauma, developing compassion & healthier self-esteem, all at a pace that's right for you. I use evidence‑based therapies, including CBT, EMDR, ACT, CFT and IFS‑informed EMDR. It's not prescriptive or scripted like some NHS therapy can feel, it's deeply personalised to suit you.

Growing up is hard, and today’s world brings extra pressures for children and teens. Emotional struggles can show up as difficult behavior, anxiety, or unhealthy ways of coping, and it’s often hard for children to express what’s inside. I support families at every stage: from infancy (0–2), through parent-infant psychotherapy to help babies and parents build secure, nurturing connections, to older children and teens, providing tailored support to process emotions, develop coping skills, strengthen relationships, and feel understood in a safe and creative space.

I am accredited to work with insurance companies and EAP to include WPA, Axa, Aviva etc Please contact me for further information.
Hello, and welcome to my page. Life can be difficult at times and we may need someone to talk to about our overwhelming feelings, or help us to expand our thinking. We can get stuck in a negative cycle, or have a deep sense of being lost, alone, different or unsure of who we are. There maybe something current that you are struggling with and need space to talk about, or there might be something historical you would like help to understand. As a relational practitioner I believe that a safe and supportive environment is an important part of the healing process and will form the foundations of our work together.

You’re the person everyone turns to. The one who gets things done while quietly wondering who you can turn to? Inside, you’re exhausted by the constant noise of overthinking and the energy it takes to 'keep the peace'. I offer a space where you don’t have to perform, pretend you’re fine, or have the 'right' words. Whether walking in nature, sitting in my quiet room, or talking online, we’ll slow things down so you can hear yourself again. My aim is to help you feel more grounded, more confident in your choices, and less alone with what you’re carrying.

Hello! I'm Jazz, a warm and compassionate Clinical Psychologist with a passion for helping people to make sense of their difficulties and find the path forwards. When we experience difficult events in life, from obvious traumas, to stressful life events (e.g., moving house, relationship break-downs), we do the best we can to survive. We learn specific ways of being, and develop ideas about ourselves and others that help us to feel safe. This is our brain and nervous system doing the best job it can. However, often these patterns of thinking and behaviour keep us feeling stuck.

Using Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), we’ll work together to understand what keeps these patterns going & develop practical, evidence-based strategies to help you move forward. This might include learning how to manage anxious thoughts, reduce avoidance, build confidence, & respond differently to difficult emotions.
