About me and my therapy practice
I offer a therapeutic relationship that is based in warmth, empathy and a belief that change is possible. People who work with me find me very calm, supportive and helpful. I have a warm and direct approach.
I know that life can bring many challenges, and we all may experience times that feel overwhelming or difficult to manage.
I offer counselling which is a very useful way to explore how you think, feel and behave and how you would like this to be different. I also offer EMDR as a stand alone treatment or as part of an integrated approach with counselling.
Practice description
I am an experienced accredited counsellor; offering counselling and EMDR Therapy working in private practice and for a local Counselling charity.
In counselling we can explore where you are currently in your life; the things that have happened to you; exploring your relationships with others and how these affect you. Being in a space where you feel safe, heard, free from judgment, focusing on what is important to you can be very impactful.
My role is to listen, reflect, to challenge stuck thoughts and behaviours and to bring theoretical models that allow you to understand what has been difficult for you and where change or acceptance is possible.
EMDR therapy offers an additional way to work with life’s difficulties. EMDR has been proven to be effective for a range of issues including anxiety, depression, low self esteem, grief, intrusive thoughts, phobias, pain and addictions. It is an effective treatment for working with trauma. It works to help you reprocess stuck memories through activating the natural healing ability of the brain.
Sessions are 50 minutes, arranged at the same time on a weekly basis and can be in person , online or over the telephone.
