With 20 years experience as a Counsellor & 10 years as an Art Psychotherapist within various NHS, Education and Community-based services, I've since specialised in EMDR therapy and am now an Accredited Practitioner with the EMDR Association UK & Ireland. Although EMDR is widely recognised as a trauma-focused therapy, it can effectively treat a broad range of issues, often in a relatively short-term time-frame. EMDR helps process intense emotions, self-limiting beliefs & behavioural patterns in the present which seem stuck on repeat, as they often track back to distressing or overwhelming relational-issues or life events in the past.

Do you feel confused after you have raised an issue with a partner only for it to be turned back on you and you suddenly question your memory or behaviour? Do you find your partner belittles you making you feel like a child or chip away at your self confidence? Perhaps you have difficulty with emotional dysregulation or are estranged from your family members.

Are you feeling stuck? Don’t know where you’re going or maybe you imagined your life to be different? Do you find living in a heteronormative world that expects everyone to function in a neurotypical way challinging? Are you wondering whether you are going to keep repeating the same patterns over and over again? Why you keep ignoring the red flags? Is trauma, old or new, currently coming to the surface? There are lots of reasons why life can feel overwhelming and talking about it in therapy can help.

I have over 20 years of experience within mental health settings in the NHS and private settings. I believe therapy is about building a non-judgemental and trusting relationship, where we can work together to make sense of your mental health symptoms and find ways to develop more awareness and ways to cope. Finding the right psychological approach is key to the smooth running of this process. Therefore, I utilise a range of psychological approaches that I adapt to suit your needs. My aim within therapy will be to be curious, empathetic and honest and draw on individual strengths.

Through therapy you can find out things about yourself that will help you understand what is going on for you and help to develop your own understanding and gradually learn more about your innermost parts and lead the way to greater acceptance of yourself. This is awareness and will help you feel more empowered to choose to do things differently. I believe this work is about being true to yourself rather than being who you think you 'should' be and to reclaim those parts of you that have been denied. It is both challenging and rewarding work leading to emotional healing and growth.
