I have thirty years experience of working in mental health services and the NHS. I worked within the Lincoln Dynamic Specialty from 2007-16, as a Senior Adult Psychotherapist. I have completed a UKCP accredited training in Psychoanalytic Psychotherapy and come under the CPJA section of the UKCP. I have been an associate lecturer on the undergraduate psychology degree at Lincoln University. I have worked with individuals and groups offering short and longer term therapy. Like most explorative therapies, if people want to understand themselves better, then please get in contact.

Hello! My name is Xanthia, an integrative psychotherapist, relationship counsellor, mindfulness teacher and clinical supervisor. I use various approaches in my therapy including cognitive and behavioural therapies (focusing on the way people think and behave), psychoanalytic therapies (looking at how past experiences affect the present) and humanistic therapies (with a focus on self-development and growth).

You might be seeking support for many reasons, such as anxiety, addictions, loss of direction, self harm, identity issues, relationship difficulties or trauma. I will create the conditions to help you feel deeply listened to and explore what ever brought you into therapy. These basic conditions will often make you feel accepted, more confident in your judgements and less afraid of expressing your thoughts and emotions. From that place you can start to deeply explore and learn about who you are and undergo your personal journey of healing and transformation

If you're struggling right now, you truly can be helped. Anxiety and depression are extremely common and in a world of pressure many of us are suffering in ways that don't fit a label and often others can't see. You deserve better than that and I built my practice to ensure hope and help is available to anyone.

People stay with us when alcohol, drugs, prescription drugs or addictive behaviour have become a problem in life. We believe that with the right support anyone can permanently break the addictive cycle and grow beyond addiction.

If you're tired of battling stress, overwhelm, anxiety or if you're frustrated because you can't seem to be as productive or confident as you want, or need, to be then hypnotherapy can work amazingly well for you. Your subconscious is in the driving seat and while it tries to help you feel safe and survive, it can also hinder you too. Often we aren't entirely aware, at a conscious level, why we're struggling or stuck in self-sabotaging behaviour patterns. Hypnotherapy is able to reach your subconscious and work with it to correct course, allowing you to achieve what you want.
