Hello, I'm Dr Laura Artis. My work life passions are working with PTSD, complex trauma and people who have an Autism Spectrum Condition (ASC), although I am able to help no matter how big or small your concerns are. It can be useful for you to think about therapy goals before starting therapy, but I can help with this if you are unsure. Often goals are around improving wellbeing and recovery, however they may be about increasing self-compassion, acceptance or gaining a better understanding of why things are as they are today. I have extensive experience working with adults, young people and families within the NHS and privately.

I enjoy working with people with a diverse range of issues and am able to draw on knowledge and skills from multiple areas of psychological knowledge and expertise to explore, understand and bring about change to each individual’s particular areas of concern. A ‘formulation’ is a shared understanding of your unique strengths and difficulties which includes an understanding of your early experiences and how these might be impacting on your life now. Working together early on in therapy to create a shared formulation is vital, as it can help us to clearly see where the main issues are and how they might begin to be be remedied.

Dr Kieren Eyles
Psychologist, PsychD, HCPC - Couns. Psych.
Verified
Verified
Let me start by saying I’ve been to see a psychologist; why mention this? Two reasons: firstly, people often ask me this, so I’ll be up front about it. Secondly – maybe why people ask – having been “on the other side of the room”, I have the experience of how hard opening up can be, and how difficult it is to think about “life”. This experience has meant that back on the psych side of the room, I take a genuinely careful and non-judgmental approach to sessions. I begin by focusing on helping people feel comfortable; paradoxically perhaps, this means we are able to get to work on things quite quickly, but importantly, never rushing.

You are not broken. You may be experiencing emotional injury, and/or psychological distress, but this does not communicate brokenness. On the contrary, this communicates an emotional BUILD. You might be struggling with symptoms of anxiety, depression, women's issues, trauma, grief, loss, low self-esteem, low self-worth, etc. It may even be likely that you have learned how to live in a way that attempts to guard you from any additional emotional injuries. Essentially, your life experiential may have taught you how to build a wall of emotional defense, but that is not your truest self

Finding the therapist that is right for you may feel a challenge, especially at a time when you may be feeling vulnerable or uncertain, perhaps facing a crisis point. This is not unusual, whether you have undertaken therapy in the past or whether this is the first time you have sought therapy. Sometimes we need help to overcome conflicts and blocks in ourselves and in our relationships that are confusing and difficult to face. I understand that you are a unique and complex individual, with many facets and aspects of who you are, how you experience yourself, and how you have had to adapt as you confront life's struggles.

EMDR Counsellors
EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitisation and Reprocessing) is an information processing therapy that helps clients cope with trauma, addictions, and phobias. During this treatment, the patient focuses on a specific thought, image, emotion, or sensation while simultaneously watching the therapist's finger or baton move in front of his or her eyes. The client is told to recognize what comes up for him/her when thinking of an image; then the client is told to let it go while doing bilateral stimulation.
