Hi, I'm Gemma, I specialise in the treatment of complex trauma (childhood/adulthood). You may notice that you're a people pleaser, or a perfectionist and you might have a strong sense that you're an impostor and don't deserve to have what you have achieved. Perhaps you and the people around you notice that you can react to situations in an exaggerated way. Perhaps you're struggling with trusting others and therefore have difficulty sustaining relationships or perhaps there are ongoing disputes. You may also struggle to sleep and difficult dreams or remembering difficult moments, places and people from the past.
In the initial sessions you will gain insight into what the problems are, how these are maintained and given choice in the following treatments: EMDR, CBT imagery re-scripting, Trauma focussed CBT Reliving, Compassion focussed therapy and CBT in order to move forwards, reclaim your life and achieve your goals.
I believe in recovery from mental health. The word 'recover' tells us that there was once the core self before the trauma was endured. The essence of trauma is dissconnection. I am genuinely interested in learning what caused the separation of yourself and how we can get you connected again to your dreams and hopes.

I work with clients who are struggling with not feeling safe, not good enough and are noticing that they are reacting to situations with an over inflated response- this is because the situation reminds them of how they felt from the past and the body is holding onto this feeling which acts as a reminder. With EMDR most clients notice a shift within the first 3 sessions of treatment.
