At Evergreen Psychotherapy, I offer individual psychotherapy to Adults, Adolescents, and Children with a wide range of emotional difficulties, but with a particular focus on a variety of psychological traumas, using Attachment Informed EMDR Psychotherapy.

I provide a safe, calm, trusting and confidential space where we can explore more deeply the concerns you bring to our sessions.

Testimonial

I needed to improve my relationship with my sister. I chose to approach this through EMDR.

Jette was sympathetic and intuitive, but also practical. She helped me explore some difficult childhood memories and how they were being triggered. I felt well supported in doing this. Jette gave me other strategies and resources to use whenever I felt panicky or threatened. Our sessions were on-line, which worked very well.

I highly recommend Jette for friendly, focussed, effective therapy.

female, 69

I am down-to-earth, calm, understanding, and empathic. I have over 16 years’ experience, including over 6000 clinical hours. I enjoy working with adults of all ages, adolescents, children and their parents or legal guardians.

•  I hold a Degree (BA Hons 1st), a Diploma (Dip HE) and a Certificate in Psychotherapy and Counselling.
• I am an EMDR Europe Accredited Practitioner for Adults
• I am fully qualified EMDR Trauma Therapist for Children and Adolescents.
• I use EMDR Therapy in an Attachment Informed way, focusing on early attachment relationships.
• I understand EMDR Therapy in an IFS (Internal Family Systems) informed way.
• I am a BACP Accredited/Registered Psychotherapist
  
• My initial training was Psychodynamic/Psychoanalytic Psychotherapy incorporating the teachings of Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) and Family Systemic Therapy.

Since then, I have worked extensively in educational settings with staff, children, and their families. These have ranged from primary through to secondary and on to A-Level students in both state and private sector schools as well as an international boarding school.

Now, I work in Private Practice only - in person and online.

I continue to take part in on-going professional development, new training, and regular supervision to enhance my practice.

I recommend we have a brief, no obligation, telephone conversation before we arrange an initial meeting. This is to explore your reasons for seeking therapy and whether you feel I am the right person for you. 

When we meet initially, we need to establish that there is a good connection between us. It is necessary for any therapeutic progress and change to take place.  This session is an assessment meeting for me to understand in detail what has happened to you and brought you to therapy.  It is also for you to determine if I am the right therapist for you.  

If  you then decide to work with me following our initial meeting, we will explore  together your difficulties and work out the most helpful way forward, depending on your circumstances and my expertise.

In rare instances, if I am unable to help you or your child, I will support you in seeking other options.
