I offer TFT ( Trauma Focused Therapy), CBT (Cognitive Behavioural Therapy), CFT (Compassion Focused Therapy).
As an experienced Psychotherapist I deal with members of the public as well as current and ex Emergency Services staff. (I am ex Services). Are you stressed and overwhelmed with life in general and/or work procedures, pressures, time restraints, lack of staff? Maybe you don't know what to deal with because you are so exhausted with numerous issues which are having a negative impact on your life. Or you may know what you want to deal with specifically but are too embarrassed to seek help. I can help you focus on the most important issues which will start you on your road to recovery and getting your life back on track. Take Care.

I am a seeking to help people who are struggling with the impact of a traumatic experience. This may be an individual traumatic experience or multiple events. Often times people living with symptoms of trauma feel alone, isolated and hopeless. The thought of seeking help and recovery can feel overwhelming and uncertain. I would like to work with clients who are ready to take the first step, or are seeking lasting recovery from difficult past experiences.

Trauma-focused therapy helps to address the underlying traumatic memories and triggers that contribute to anxiety. CBT, on the other hand, equips individuals with practical techniques to identify and challenge negative thought patterns. However, a combination of trauma-focused therapy and cognitive-behavioural therapy (CBT) can offer effective strategies for managing anxiety and reclaiming a sense of calm. I provide a safe and supportive environment for processing and healing trauma, and all anxiety-based issues. I offer therapy sessions over the phone and video link.

I offer trauma focused treatments - EMDR, EFT (known as "tapping") and CBT sessions.
I think it is difficult finding the right help at the right time. You might have had some therapy that didn’t help as much as you'd hoped. So why work with me? Talking therapy can be very beneficial, but some clients need more than that. We all have experienced difficult times, but sometimes it gets "frozen in time". Do you sometimes feel that ALL your problems " are on repeat"? I am a fully qualified Trauma Therapist who offers EMDR, EFT and CBT. These are powerful modalities which can help you with issues like traumatic memories, c-PTSD symptoms, flashbacks, depression, anxiety, nightmares, pain, panic attacks, OCD.

There is hope even if your brain tells you there isn't, and it is my job as a counsellor to help you see it. It is usually buried somewhere under layers of shame, self-criticism and feeling not good enough. We will work together to help you feel a deeper sense of fulfilment and control over your life. With the right support and tools, you can overcome challenges and lead a more balanced and satisfying life, even if now it seems impossible.

Ex military, now multi skilled therapist. The military provided me with valuable insights and experiences. Vast exposure, witnessing various traumas and mental health impacts highlighted the importance of mental health suport and the benefit of it to others. Having supported others for years through issues such as suicide, abuse, sexual vilence, domestic violence, depression, anxiety, selfharm, neglect, relational conflict, PTSD and the impacts of bereavement I wanted to continue similar support throughy therapy.
