Denise Grahame

Please contact me direct to enquire about availability because it can change within days.  I currently do not have a Waiting List.

I work all day on a Tuesday and Wednesday from 9.00 am to 7.30 pm.

I am an accredited CBT Therapist and an accredited counsellor.  I have been delivering therapy using Cognitive Behavioural Psychotherapy and Personal Centred Therapy for over twenty years.  In addition, I am trained in Trauma Focused CBT and EMDR.

I have work in community organisations in 'Troubled' areas of Belfast, GP Practices and laterally in a NHS hospital.  I also set up and ran a CBT Counselling Services for Praxis Care one of the largest charities in Northern Ireland.

I worked in the NHS during Covid and learnt to deliver therapy for complex issues and trauma on line by Zoom.  

I now deliver therapy for complex issue on line and I also use EMDR due to my vast experience in delivering therapy on line with success.

The following is a recent feedback from a client who had not been to therapy before:-

Having never been for any form of therapy or counselling before, I was nervous and didn't know what to expect, and also was apprehensive at the thought it would be conducted via Zoom rather than face-to-face.

However, I was immediately put at ease in our first session and quickly forgot that we were not in the same room but weres talking through the computer.  In fact, on a practical level it was easier for me to fit our sessions around my other commitments by being able to just 'log on' rather than take time to drive to an in-person appointment.  The level of service (and care) provided was first rate and I found it easy to connect with, and open up to , my therapist and get quickly to the heart of my issues even though we weren't sitting across from each other!"

I set up my private practise in 2016 and client feedback has been very positive.

Your first  appointment will be an Initial Assessment and the second appointment will be assessing your issues in order to work on your central issues first.

As above.
