So many therapists to choose from aren't there? It can be quite overwhelming!

I am an accredited therapist working with both individuals and couples. I also offer EMDR threrapy. I have a passion for helping people navigate their way through difficult points in their lives. It could be you are looking for help around the issues of emotional abuse, or needing help to recover from traumatic experiences. In my experience, EMDR has worked wonders in helping clients to recover from PTSD and move on from their lives.

My Qualifications and Work History

I hold a Master's of Science degree in Therapeutic Counselling; this training means I have undergone extensive academic study as well as clinical supervised practice before I was given the "go ahead" to practice as a Counsellor/Therapist.

Before becoming a therapist I worked in mental health crisis for the NHS. I loved this work but found myself wanted to spend more one on one time with the service users, hearing their stories, which led to me venturing into counselling training. Going even further back, in my twenties I lived overseas as an expat, meaning I understand what it feels like to be alone in a foreign country.

No matter what you are coming to therapy with, I guarantee you will be met with warmth and compassion.

Please see my website for more information about how counselling and EMDR can help with:

Emotional abuse such as

*Gaslighting

*Coercive control

*Toxic relationships

*Narcissism and narcissistic abuse

*Bullying

Difficult life events such as

*Family estrangement

*Bereavement including loss through suicide

*Childhood trauma and PTSD

* Adverse life experiences

I also have a keen interest in working with trauma, including PTSD and Complex PTSD using EMDR. In my practice, I have found EMDR to be invaluable when it comes to helping clients move on from adverse life experiences- whether this be childhood abuse, bullying or a traumatic relationship as an adult.

 I have a passion for helping people navigate their way through difficult points in their lives. It could be you are looking for help around the issues of emotional abuse, family estrangement, low self-esteem, or you have lost a loved one to suicide. Or maybe you feel you need help to unpack life events that have left you feeling lost and lonely. 

I also have a keen interest in working with trauma using EMDR, and have extensive expwrience in using EMDR to heal PTSD and C-PTSD. It could be that you have symptoms of trauma following adverse childhood experiences, or an abusive relationship- in my experience EMDR can help you move on with your life.

I love helping people understand more about themselves and make the changes they want to see in their lives; whether this be to build self-esteem after experiencing emotional abuse or moving on after a relationship breakdown.

In the first session I will ask to hear what brought you to seek help, and what you would like to 'get out' of the sessions (however, if you don't have specific goals that is absolutely fine).  It is also helpful to hear about your life and your background (it may not feel relevant now but it usually is!)
