I have a toolkit of techniques to draw from, including Eye Movement Desensitisation & Reprocessing ( EMDR) to work with specific traumas.
Hi! Are you feeling stressed, anxious, or overwhelmed? Perhaps you have had difficult life experiences that you've never processed. Maybe you just want to be heard. I offer a safe, non-judgemental space to come and chat. The work is led by you, with me as a companion guide. My aim is to help you help yourself to find what you need - whether that be peace, understanding, answers or space to just be. We may explore the past and how that influences the present. Throughout the work we will build on your strengths, finding resilience and wellbeing through our conversations and the actions you put into place to look after yourself.

I tend to use a carefully crafted mix of the following approaches: EMDR, CBT, CFT, CAT, DBT, Systemic Theory, Internal Family Systems and Psychodynamic concepts.
I am passionate about trauma informed practice: making every effort to understand the impact of people’s lived experiences on their daily lives. My approach is based on psychological formulation, to make sense of what a person is experiencing, and then using a range of integrated approaches to help people to make changes. I care about empowering individuals to live the lives they want to live, and take a very human and empathic approach to working with people's distress.

I offer a warm, empathetic, and non-judgmental approach to therapy. My goal is to create a safe and confidential space where you can feel comfortable sharing your thoughts.

My approach is personalised, using techniques like EMDR to help manage emotional struggles and find relief.
Feeling overwhelmed, isolated, or unsure how to move forward? It’s frustrating when you’ve tried all the mental health advice, yet nothing seems to help. Maybe you’ve been feeling more anxious or down lately. Perhaps you’ve lost someone close, leaving you with overwhelming grief. Or you’ve experienced something upsetting that keeps you up at night, no matter how hard you try to move on. If these challenges are affecting your self-esteem, know you’re not alone. And even if it doesn’t feel like it right now, there is hope.

I am a BACP Accredited Counsellor and Psychotherapist and an EMDR practitioner accredited by EMDR Europe.
Having practised as a therapist for twenty years I have had the privilege to work with many creative, resilient, courageous and resourceful people. However, very few felt that way when they first came for therapy. Life can be challenging and we all struggle at times to cope with problems and stressful situations. Different people obviously find different things difficult but what everyone shares are the natural responses of feeling distressed, confused, anxious and lost. Counselling can help you to express your feelings, work through anxiety and confusion and develop positive responses to the challenges you are facing.

Who is EMDR for?
EMDR was initially developed as a treatment for individuals with Post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), for whom memories of a deeply distressing experience can be inadvertently triggered by random everyday events. The procedure has since been applied in the treatment of many other conditions. For example, it is used by some therapists to treat anxiety disorders including panic and phobias, depression, dissociative disorders, eating disorders, obsessive-compulsive disorders, and some personality disorders. It is suitable for adolescents and adults.
Why do people need EMDR?
People need EMDR as a way to manage distressing memories that in some way hamper the ability to function in the present. The procedure is believed to target the way memories are stored in the brain. Evidence indicates that past disturbing experiences cause ongoing distress because they were not adequately processed, and when such memories are triggered in the present, they are accompanied by all the emotions, thoughts, and physical sensations as the initial experience.
What problems does EMDR treat?
First and foremost, EMDR is intended as a treatment for PTSD, to defuse distressing memories that intrude on and impair everyday functioning. It is also often used to help those who are subject to panic attacks, phobias, and other forms of anxiety. In addition, EMDR has been used to treat individuals with depression, eating disorders, and personality disorders.
What happens in EMDR therapy?
First the therapist takes an individual’s history, and then the therapist and client decide which distressing experience(s) will be the target(s) of the exercise, delivered via a side-to-side visual stimulus requiring lateral eye movements. The client will be asked to activate thoughts, feelings, and any body sensations related to the troubling experience. The eye movements are said to reduce the emotional charge of the memory, so that the experience can then be safely discussed with the therapist and digested, minimising its ability to trigger anxiety.
