About me and my therapy practice
Hello I’m Dee and I’m an experienced, approachable and compassionate therapist working in East Grinstead. I have trained extensively in counselling and psychotherapy. I have a masters level qualification (CTA) in psychotherapy, as well as additional training in trauma therapy and mindfulness.
I also enjoy working creatively, including using sand tray, creative writing and objects but this isn’t for everyone, so there’s no obligation to work in this way!
Practice description
I see clients from all walks of life including teenagers, adults and older adults. Typical difficulties that clients need support with are anxiety, depression, low self esteem, relationship difficulties and stress. However, we are all unique and everyone has their own story to tell.
I integrate different approaches into my work such as TA, which includes looking at childhood decisions and the way we interact with others) and mindfulness to support with living in the here and now and grounding. I have undertaken additional training in trauma therapy and can offer a four stage recovery plan where necessary.
I would be delighted to support you on your personal journey.
My first session
I offer a free introductory session to discuss your needs and see if we are a good fit. There is no obligation to continue if we aren’t right for each other.
During the first session, I will ask you questions about your life history, current lifestyle and any goals you may have for the work together. It’s fine if you don’t know what the goal is. This often becomes clearer as the time goes on.
