Hello, I’m Roo. Thank you for taking the time to check my profile. I really do appreciate the importance of finding the right therapist for you to work alongside. Entering into therapy isn’t something that should be done lightly. If you choose to work with me, I’ll bring over 31 years experience in mental health. I am privileged to have worked with many individuals and families during my 31 years and I remain as passionate today as that first day in supporting people to better mental health. I can help you move towards your goals by providing the skills, containment & support so you can ultimately become your own therapist.
25+ years of delivering therapy means I’ve worked across many complexities in Trauma, Anxiety and Depression amongst others. I have 18 years experience of using EMDR across complex trauma & many other disorders e.g., OCD, BDD etc. I’m trained in CAT and TFT, alongside lots of other modalities over the years - A toolbox of techniques that we can utilise.
I take pride in offering a non-judgmental, safe and supportive environment. It’s not easy talking to a stranger about your difficulties & I have been told many times that I’m a warm, empathic human being who is easy to talk to & be with. We’ll understand your difficulties, discovering repeated patterns maintaining these. We can then find new ways of working
