I work with clients who feel stuck in anxiety, stress, or repeating patterns that no longer serve them. Those who feel overwhelmed or burnt out. Clients may appear outwardly holding it all together,but in reality are struggling. I offer a calm, non judgemental space where clients can feel safe, supported, and have the opportunity to fully make sense of their experiences and explore ways to deal with their presenting issues. Together we will build clarity, confidence and coping mechanisms to face the challenges and therfore feel more at ease in their daily lives.

During the COVID-19 pandemic, I transitioned my business online, accessing the global market where I still work treating adults, couples, and families from any country in the world. I was trained to provide therapy in English to speakers of other languages.

Whether you are struggling with anxiety/panic, stress, depression, trauma, often related to relationships or family, or physical illness, I offer a safe space, using a wide range of treatment types, working out with each client what would be most helpful, in both Western therapies such as CBT and DBT, couples therapy and Eastern energy/body work which can work together holistically towards healing both body and mind.

It can be a huge step to decide to talk to a counsellor/psychotherapist about personal issues so it is important to find someone you are comfortable with, who will not judge you but accept you for who you are. I offer office based and/or telephone therapy. The relationship between therapist and patient is fundamentally important. I liken psychotherapy to being in a clothing shop changing room where we get a unique view of ourselves from all angles. Likewise therapy is about helping someone to glimpse and explore hidden parts of themselves or just helping them make sense of their distress.

You may appear capable, dependable, and successful to others, while privately feeling overwhelmed, disconnected, exhausted, or stuck in patterns of overthinking and over-functioning. I work with high-achieving individuals who carry significant responsibility but struggle to prioritise themselves without guilt. Many clients come to therapy during relationship strain, burnout, identity shifts, or when the way they have always coped no longer feels sustainable.

Do you struggle with panic attacks or anxiety, feeling depressed, or are you being troubled with intrusive thoughts or symptoms such as chronic tiredness, or have you chronic pain such as fibromyalgia? I, Dr Maureen Stevenson, am a retired GP who has trained in Sensorimotor Psychotherapy. I find that many people have been traumatised in their lives, and suffer both mental and physical symptoms following these traumatic experiences. Many of us have suffered developmental trauma, this can leave us more susceptible to be adversely affected by difficulties later in life. Sensorimotor Psychotherapy can help us heal and find new hope.

Personality Disorders Counsellors
What are the common treatment options for personality disorders?
Personality disorders are typically treated with psychotherapy, sometimes in conjunction with medication. Therapy can help people with personality disorders develop skills to tolerate difficult emotions, navigate interpersonal relationships, and solidify their sense of self. Medications can treat symptoms that co-occur with the disorder, such as depression, anger, aggression, and impulsivity.
When to seek treatment for personality disorders?
Even though treatment for personality disorders can be an uphill battle, it’s best to seek help if you suspect that you or a loved one is struggling with one, because personality disorders can create substantial problems in life. Symptoms depend on the specific disorder, but overall signs of personality disorders include consistent difficulty maintaining close relationships, dramatic variations in self-esteem, and an unstable sense of identity.
How long does therapy take for personality disorders?
The timeline for treating personality disorders isn’t as clear-cut as it is for other disorders. Change can be difficult, taking from around one year to five, 10, or more. The key is finding a therapist who has extensive experience treating the relevant disorder. For example, a psychologist who specialises in narcissistic personality disorder has specific communication strategies that allow them to sustain the relationship and be more effective with narcissistic patients.
Can therapy help people with personality disorders?
Research suggests that for those who are motivated to address concerns or interpersonal conflict related to a personality disorder, therapy is far more effective than no treatment, and that most people in therapy see improvements. However, since personality disorders involve entrenched elements of identity, they are less responsive to treatment than are other mental health conditions. Finding an expert who has extensive experience working with a given personality disorder is one factor that increases the likelihood of successful treatment.
