Practice description
The practice is conveniently located in central Birmingham, I also offer online sessions for those who prefer the flexibility of therapy from home.
The therapeutic approach is grounded in Transactional Analysis (TA) a framework for understanding human communication and interaction. I integrate this with a comprehensive understanding of neuroscience and utilise other evidence-based modalities such as:
Master Practitioner Neuro-Linguistic Programming (NLP) which offers people deeper, faster, and more precise change work because it works at the level of beliefs, identity, unconscious patterns and emotional regulation.
Clinical Hypnotherapy which increases a sense of safety and helps overcome phobias and fears as well as release addictive and unhelpful habits.
Eye Movement Desensitisation and Reprocessing (EMDR) which is an evidence based approach for processing and integrating traumatic experiences.
Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) which offers a means of challenging and changing unhelpful beliefs and their effect on feelings and behaviour.
Mindfulness-Based Therapies offering strategies for relaxation and self-soothing.
Having had advanced training in Trauma-Focused Therapy I prioritise a holistic approach to healing. I focus on helping people:
Process and integrate challenging experiences
Discover previously unavailable options and possibilities
Set and achieve meaningful goals
Increase emotional flexibility and resilience
My ethos is centred on supporting people and their healing journey, fostering growth and self-acceptance.
