You might be new to kink, experienced, or living a 24/7 BDSM lifestyle. Perhaps you’re confused or worried about your fantasies and fetishes? Or you might be a kinkster looking for help with something else entirely. Whatever brings you to therapy, you'll want to work with a therapist who understands and accepts all of you. It’s the same with non-monogamy and polyamory. You may be new to non-monogamy and want to talk things through before opening your relationship. If you’re already non-monogamous/polyamorous, I can guide you through challenges like negotiating agreements, poly-saturation, jealousy, envy or communications problems.

We all go through life experiencing good and bad moments, but sometimes the bad experiences can become too overwhelming to manage them on our own. Sometimes they may be a result of sudden changes which life throws at us unexpectedly leaving us vulnerable and lost in a new reality and sometimes it may be that we want to change something in our lives, but don’t really know how, which leaves us feeling stuck and helpless. If this sounds familiar to how you feel why not try counselling? Talking to someone you can trust who can listen without any judgement can be very helpful especially in these challenging times.

I’m an experienced Consultant Clinical Psychologist, working both in the NHS and independent sector. I work with adults and older adolescents (16years +) to help them manage a wide range of mental health difficulties in order for people to live a meaningful and fulfilling life. I can provide therapy for those for whom it is their first experience of looking for therapy as well for those who have maybe tried various other therapies/avenues previously. l also adapt therapy to meet people needs, including for people who are neurodivergent. My areas of special interest include Complex Trauma and Borderline Personality Disorder.

I work with adults and children age 6+.If you're struggling to manage life's rollercoaster, and surviving more than thriving, you could benefit from having someone to help you understand your mental health. Whether it's Depression, Anxiety, Stress, Imposter syndrome, parenting worries, breaking generational cycles/trauma, managing controlling or manipulative personalities please get in touch for a free initial conversation. I specialise in working with children & young people. I have a great deal of experience in working with school based anxieties, childhood illness & disabilities, parental relationship breakdowns & neurodiversity

I imagine that whatever has happened to bring you here involves suffering. Whilst therapy can help to consolidate on successes and open up an even brighter future, most of us seek therapy because of a painful sense that all is not well. Whether it is a traumatic life event that brings you here, or difficult experiences from the past that continue to intrude on your present and future; current relationship difficulties or simply a nagging feeling of anxiety or depression, I can really understand your struggles and hope I can help you reconnect to what you love the most, and what can give your life the greatest purpose and meaning.

Do you find yourself feeling stuck, lost, frustrated or frequently sad? Are there feelings you feel have lingered or not been dealt with for some time? It is often the case we feel, if we are carrying on as 'normal' then we are fine. How often do you find yourself using the phrase; 'I'm fine' when in actual fact you feel anything but, but at the same time can not put a word/emotion or meaning to the thoughts and emotions you are experiencing? I offer a safe and non-judgmental space for you to explore, express or work out how to express anything you need to, I am here to really listen, see and hear you! Please feel free to contact me

Free 30 minutes initial session. Is your life affected by past trauma, adversity, neglect or abuse? Do you feel stressed, anxious, burnt out or lacking self-esteem, without understanding why? Therapy with me can help you understand your past trauma, how it affects you in the present, and how to discover new ways of living a more balanced, peaceful and fulfilling life. Trauma informed therapy asks “What happened to you?” instead of “What is wrong with you?”. My approach incorporates Attachment- Focused, Internal Family Systems, Somatic Awareness, Compassion- Focused and Creative Therapy. I also offer Rewind Therapy for PTSD.

Known as Jane Peacock, my trauma informed practice is rooted in the person centred approach, it is non-pathologising and non-judgemental with a belief that it is not what is wrong with a person, it is about what has happened to a person. The sense of connection from human to human is fundamental to all our needs and I endeavour to provide a therapeutic relationship in this space with you, where you are able to feel therapeutically held, heard and validated. Such a relationship would provide a space of compassionate acceptance and allow us to explore those feelings in you which are so hard to access or experience in everyday life.

Whether you are struggling with stress, anxiety, trauma, relationships, or just finding it difficult to just get through the day, especially with increasing pressures in our modern world. I offer a person-centred approach to help you explore your thoughts, feelings and behaviours in a safe, confidential and non-judgmental space. I believe that everyone is unique and deserves to be heard. You can make positive changes to your life when you are listened to and feel valued.

We all struggle at times to manage the pressures of everyday life. It maybe feelings of stress, anxiety, depression, recent or past trauma, anger or relationship difficulties. I am integratively trained meaning I value your individuality and can tailor my approach to your own unique needs. I am non-judgemental and offer empathy and warmth. We will work together to achieve your goals. I believe each client has the healing potential within to overcome life problems. The relationship we build together provides support and facilitates awareness, insight and personal growth thus allowing a more empowered happier life.

You appear successful on the outside, but inside, you are struggling with self-doubt, anxiety, feeling stuck. You may feel like your life is passing you by and you have little control over it. You don't have the confidence to try new things and take steps towards change. You are driven by fear rather than desire. You know you are meant for more, you want to take that next step, break free of what is holding you back, understand your self-worth and create meaningful connection with people. You want to get up every morning excited about your life. You want more, but you just don't know where to start!

If you are struggling with negative thoughts and feelings and want to change these to more positive thinking then don't wait contact me now. I have 40 years experience of working with the NHS and treated thousands of patients successfully with CBT or EMDR
