Bodhi Therapy Nottingham
Psychotherapist, MSc, MUKCP
You are the only person who knows exactly how you feel, which means, you are the only one who knows when something is wrong. When something has happened, big or small, but enough to create feelings of anxiety, stress and depression, it can lead us to feeling isolated and alone. There is a human need to want to get back to that balance of a happy life and that change can only happen when you know and understand what is wrong and why. Sometimes we get so overwhelmed by a situation, current or historical, we cant seem to find a way out. But balance is achievable again, but sometimes we just need a little support to help us get there.

I have extensive "hands on" working with survivors of trauma and understanding the impact of the trauma suffered at the hands of a perpetrator. Being believed, not judged. With this base knowledge, no need to be afraid of being judged within our sessions.

Psychotherapist, MA, MBACP
Questioning the life you've built? If things look sorted on paper but feel empty on the inside, I help you find clarity in your work and relationships so life feels like your own. But right now, you feel exhausted, disconnected, like you're just going through the motions of a life that doesn't fit you anymore. You want to find some genuine clarity in your relationships, your work, and who you actually are underneath it all. I work with adults in their 20s and 30s who feel stuck and are trying to figure out what's next. Together, we create a space to step back, untangle the bigger picture, and see the wood from the trees.
