Hi, I'm Michelle, a Children's CBT & EMDR therapist. I specialise in working with children between the ages of 5 & 18 suffering with PTSD, trauma/distress. I also work with adults. I treat various forms of anxiety (social, health, school, separation, worry, phobias, panic, perfectionism) depression, self esteem, OCD.

If you or your child is struggling with: school/work, friendships, nightmares, flashbacks, intrusive thoughts then I am 100% able to help. I've many years experience helping children & adults get their happiness back!

My passion for wanting to support mums was borne out of my own difficult journey into motherhood. A challenging pregnancy and a traumatic birth followed by severe postnatal depression and PTSD fuelled my drive to working with mums to make their journeys more manageable and enjoyable. Having worked hard on recovering from this difficult start to motherhood, I went on to train as a counsellor at the University of Edinburgh (MSc) and Chrysalis (Postgraduate Diploma). I have completed numerous trainings on trauma - specifically birth trauma and continue to participate in CPDs to inform my practice as a perinatal mental health therapist

I am Clinical Psychologist who is experienced in working with people at various stages in life, from childhood up to older adults, as well as a range of experiences which impact mental wellbeing. These include anxiety disorders, low mood or depression, substance misuse, health psychology, trauma/PTSD, body dysmorphia, OCD, hoarding, disordered eating behaviours, neurodevelopment and neuropsychological presentations.

I am a highly empathic, friendly and experienced professional therapist with over 14 years experience. I offer an accepting & safe space to help clients overcome the barriers that stop them living life the way they want to. I utilise traditional CBT & newer '3rd Wave CBT' interventions, such as Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), metacognitive therapy & compassionate mind approach, to offer a flexible and individualised treatment process. I interweave these theories with EMDR and Attachment Informed EMDR. Including acknowledgement and understanding of our internal 'parts' that influence our helpful and less helpful behaviours.

I am an accredited integrative psychotherapist (MBACP) with a special focus on trauma and dissociation. I work relationally, which means that, through the therapeutic relationship, you are encouraged to understand how early experiences and past relationships impact on your present difficulties. In order to access emotions and past traumatic experiences trapped in the body I sometimes use a more mindful and somatic approach in addition to traditional talking therapies. Of special interest to me is how unresolved and traumatic experiences can be healed and transformed by a greater integration of the mind and body.

I am a Chartered Counselling Psychologist and I specialise in offering Eye Movement Desensitisation and Reprocessing (EMDR). I work in a way that is tailored uniquely for each client and integrate other evidenced-based approaches into my practice depending on your needs and working towards your goals together.

I consider myself to be kind, compassionate and gently challenging and aim to create an environment in which clients can move towards changing their lives for the better, learning new skills & gaining insight.

My approach is friendly and collaborative and based on the latest evidence of successful therapy approaches.

I offer EMDR, CBT and Couples Counselling therapy and the aim is to help you to regain a sense of wellbeing and enjoyment in your life.

CBT is an effective treatment that can help you in the here and now and EMDR is useful for getting to the root of the problem. I find that both work well, in different ways to bring about an improvement in emotional and physical health.

Thank you for visiting. Seeking support can be daunting, especially when feeling vulnerable and with so many therapists to choose from. The clients I see, seek therapy for a variety of reasons, including experiencing anxiety, low mood, intrusive thoughts, obsessions, fluctuating emotions, substance or relationship issues and PTSD. I believe these difficulties often arise from things that have happened to us, causing us emotional pain, trauma or loss. I collaborate with clients to understand and unpick these patterns, empowering them to forge a new path aligned with their goals, restoring a sense of safety, control, and wellness.

I work with a wide range of issues including: anxiety, depression, stress, psychological issues caused by physical health problems (e.g. diabetes, chronic pain), phobias, obsessive-compulsive issues (OCD), personality issues, low self-esteem, managing life transitions (such as retirement or having a baby) and many more issues. I specialise in working with individuals suffering from eating disorders (including anorexia nervosa, bulimia nervosa and binge eating disorder) and those who have experienced psychological trauma, including childhood sexual abuse and post-traumatic stress disorder.

I am an experienced psychotherapist working with adults who seek help with anxiety, depression, self-esteem, trauma, relationship and family issues. I believe that everyone has a unique potential for growth. Benefits of therapy can include improved self esteem, reduced stress, more resilience, better decision making, and more enjoyable relationships. Therapy can help you to identify unhelpful patterns that keep you stuck, and make different choices that enhance your life.
