I am a Chartered Counselling Psychologist and I specialise in offering Eye Movement Desensitisation and Reprocessing (EMDR) I work in a way that is tailored uniquely for each client and integrate other evidenced-based approaches into my practice depending on your needs and working towards your goals together. These may include Compassion Focussed Therapy (CFT), Acceptance & Commitment Therapy (ACT) and Mindfulness. I consider myself to be kind, compassionate and gently challenging and aim to create an environment in which clients can move towards changing their lives for the better, learning new skills & gaining insight.
I offer weekly sessions aswell as intensives (longer EMDR sessions over several days). EMDR is an effective way of addressing Trauma and PTSD symptoms, overwhelming or difficult experiences we may have faced, and the resulting unhelpful behaviours or thinking. I also offer EMDR-informed coaching which can be an energising and creative way of working.
The focus of coaching work is current issues such as difficulty reaching goals, lack of clarity in values or strengths, improving wellbeing, strengthening your self-care strategies or understanding and managing stress and anxiety better. “A big thank you for being there with your calm and quiet approach, your support has been invaluable" (Female, 48).
