Client sessions are on Monday mornings. I work online using Zoom.

I have considerable experience of counselling in various NHS environments helping people address a wide range of psychological issues. I also offer EMDR to process all forms of post traumatic stress arising from the one-off, possibly apparently minor, incident that still has a negative impact now to multiple, more serious, incidents. My approach will vary to suit the individual person and the issue they wish to work on. My style ranges from providing a safe space to explore emotions or relational aspects to a more focused, practical or forward-looking approach helping address specific goals.

I also offer counselling supervision and EMDR supervision to therapists and students.

Please see my website www.gwtherapy.co.uk for more information.

The work is done online using Zoom and I offer a free introductory technical session to help anyone unfamiliar with Zoom.

The first session is an opportunity for me and the client to gain a better understanding of each other, the issues the client is facing and whether we both feel we can work together usefully.

I work online using Zoom. Client sessions are on Monday morning and supervision sessions are Wednesday afternoon.

Being integratively trained my supervision style is flexible but has an overall structure. I work with the supervisee to explore the client's goals and I work with supervisees in either time limited and open-ended environments.

As I am an EMDR Europe Accredited consultant my work is very much informed from a trauma and neurobiological perspective.

My supervision practice is integrative with an emphasis on how the supervisee's relational patterns interact with the client's attachment patterns. I also bring in elements of trauma when appropriate and very much encourage the supervisee to develop an integrative approach that adapts to the needs of the client.

The first session is very much a getting to know each other session but I am particularly keen to know about the supervisee's upbringing and attachment patterns so that we can be aware of what may play out when working with clients.
