I am a passionate, committed, and hard-working Counselling Psychologist wanting to bring to you a psychological service that meets all your needs. I began practicing as a Counselling Psychologist after a previous professional career in teaching. Leaving teaching over ten years ago, I realised my dream of becoming a psychologist, a position that I feel is a privilege, one that I never take for granted.

I now have a growing team of associates who all have their specialist areas, are talented psychologists and psychotherapists, who I either have worked with, know personally, or have come highly recommended. We are all experienced in working across a range of difficulties and age groups. Our goals as clinicians are to reduce your psychological distress (e.g., depression, anxiety, pain) to enhance and encourage psychological well-being.

My specialist areas are domestic violence and abuse. I have worked with many survivors of abuse and indeed my doctoral thesis and further research is in this area. My interest was developed from starting a therapeutic service in a women’s refuge back in 2014

I have met many inspirational women, along the way, and now work closely with Local Authorities to support women to re-build their lives, and the lives of their children in the aftermath of domestic abuse.

Complex trauma and PTSD is another area that I am a specialist in. I am an accredited EMDR practitioner and integrate this within my work. EMDR is an incredibly powerful and transformative therapy and often brings life-changing results.

I am an accredited Cognitive Behavioural Therapist with over 12 years of experience working for the NHS. EMDR and Schema Therapy are other modalities I use where difficulties involve more longstanding patterns with emotional and/or other trauma-based origins.

Together with many years of formal training and developing expertise across a wide range of difficulties, I also have over 40 years’ experience of being a human being- thus a lived experience of emotional distress. I have completed and benefited from all the therapies I provide, which I feel is invaluable in truly empathising with what you may be going through and what might help (although everyone's experience is unique).

Therapy will involve recognising and understanding the patterns of difficulties you experience and the context in which they developed before working to challenge/break these patterns and manage those triggers in more adaptive ways going forward. Thus, allowing you to build up emotional resilience; confidence and well-being.

I have over 17 years’ experience of working in the NHS in mental health, and I qualified as a Clinical Psychologist 9 years ago. I have worked with older adults, adults and children. I have specialised in perinatal mental health, parenting and areas of parent-child relational/bonding and led on the set up and development of an innovative trauma informed, perinatal trauma and baby loss service.

I tend to work with people struggling with aspects of parenthood, people who are struggling with their relationships more broadly, life transitions and changes and people with traumatic experiences and difficulties in managing emotions.

I am passionate about my work and relationships with the people I work with. I endeavour to develop a supportive and safe space, balancing exploration and understanding, with ideas and steps towards change. I am hopeful, genuine and compassionate in my approach.

I am trained in Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Compassion Focused Therapy (CFT), Eye Movement Desensitisation and Reprocessing (EMDR), Dialectical Behaviour Skills, Video Interaction Guidance and the Incredible Years Parenting Programme. I sometimes draw on Cognitive Analytic Therapy (CAT), which can inform my work with people who may be struggling in the way they relate to themselves or others.

Together, we would help make sense of the difficulties and consider what would be most helpful, to enable you to live a more meaningful life, in line with your values.

I have worked for the past 24 years within Local Authority contexts, across a range of primary, high school, further education and specialist settings. This has involved working with children and young people between the ages of 0-25; liaising with school/college staff to help to meet the needs of their students; direct work with parents supporting them and their child at home and at school; providing a range of training for teachers, parents, and other professionals.

For the past 19 years I have held a dual role, positioned across both Educational and Clinical Sectors. My work across a variety of Child and Adolescent Mental Health Services (CAMHs), has equipped me with the skills to assess need, recommend, and deliver therapeutic approaches aimed at improving the mental health of children and young people. I am committed to finding ways to make a positive difference to the lives of children and young people and to support them in their journey towards greater wellbeing.

Within the past few years, I have gathered experience in the area of Educational Neuropsychology. This work focused on the rehabilitation of children and young people with an acquired brain injury, supporting children/ young people, their families and the wider systems involved with them.

In addition, I have worked as an Associate Psychologist for the National Autistic Society and more recently as a Specialist Eating Disorder Therapist.

I am a registered Clinical Psychologist working primarily in the NHS with individuals with complex mental health difficulties. I have worked in the NHS in mental health for 16 years and been qualified as a clinical psychologist for almost 10 years.

I specialise in helping adults who have experienced trauma who struggle to regulate their emotions and navigate their relationships with others. I have worked with individuals in primary and secondary care services with anxiety disorders, depression and Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) symptoms.

I take a person centred approach and will work with you to help you to understand the difficulties you are experiencing and am compassionate and non judgmental. I am trained in Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT), Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Eye movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) and I like to use a Cognitive Analytic Therapy (CAT) informed approach to working with relationship difficulties.

I look forward to working alongside you to help you to make the changes you are seeking and to improve your quality of life and relationships.

I am an HCPC registered clinical psychologist with substantial experience working with adults in the NHS. I specialise in supporting individuals struggling with depression, anxiety, low self-esteem and relationship difficulties. I also have considerable experience working clinically with people with medically unexplained symptoms and chronic conditions. Finally, I hold expertise in working with parents, supporting them to think about their early experiences and how this might impact their relationship with their child.

My approach is relational, trauma informed and culturally sensitive. I think about difficulties and distress as being rooted in relationships and grounded in context, drawing on models including psychodynamic, cognitive analytic and narrative therapies. This means I work collaboratively with the client to think about influences from their upbringing, their relationship with self and others, while paying close attention to social factors.

My aim is to cultivate a safe and containing space for clients, as I believe establishing a trusting therapeutic relationship is essential for therapeutic work to happen.

I am a HCPC registered clinical Psychologist currently working supporting NHS staff. I am committed to working with people from a non-judgemental stance of compassion and curiosity.

I have extensive experience supporting people with anxiety, depression, burn out and trauma. I work with people who feel lost, stuck and disconnected from the world around them. Traumatic events alter our identities and shatter our assumptions of the world and others. I am passionate about working with warmth to help individuals to find meaning, experience growth, and heal through connected togetherness. I can help people to live a life in line with their values and navigate challenges in relationships with boundaries, integrity and generosity.

I have experience of supporting survivors of rape, sexual abuse and those affected by vicarious and secondary trauma. I aim to help people understand normal responses to abnormal events. I integrate understandings from evolutionary psychology about how humans are wired and draw on evidence-based practice through a person-centred approach. I have also completed a PhD in Dementia and have over 10 years working with individuals and their carers to cope with loss, adjustment, transition, and grief.

I am trained in CBT, Compassion Focused Therapy, Acceptance Commitment Therapy, Narrative Therapy and EMDR. I am also a qualified coach, and I can draw on all of these skills to help you come up with a plan, take tangible steps and find the courage to take the action that matters most to you. I am humbled by the courage every person shows in seeking help and take care to foster trust within a therapeutic relationship.

I am a clinical psychologist and am currently undertaking an intermediate level accreditation in family therapy. I offer online therapy for individuals, families, couples and queer partnerships, and parent-child pairs.

In individual therapy, I use a trauma-informed approach based on compassionate and values-based therapeutic models which are strengths-based. I look forward to working with people towards better mental health, wellbeing, and living a meaningful thriving life.

In relational therapy, I focus on the different ways that people can relate with each other, such as: (a)romantic, (a)sexual, parenting, and family relationships. I use therapeutic approaches based on systemic thinking, focusing on the relationships between people, their social contexts, and the wider cultures that we find ourselves in. I look forward to working with people who wish to develop their communication and connection with each other – whether this be with partner(s), parent(s), or child(ren).

I am an Indian cis-gendered non-disabled queer woman, born in Bengaluru, Karnataka, and raised in the UK. Migration is a huge part of my lived experiences, due to which I am especially interested in the ways that language and culture influence and shape us throughout our lives.

I am an accredited psychotherapist with the BABCP and an accredited consultant with the EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitisation and Reprocessing) Association UK and Ireland. For the last 15 years I have specialised in the treatment of anxiety disorders, PTSD & complex trauma, obsessive compulsive difficulties (OCD), clinical depression, low self-esteem, and body dysmorphic disorder (BDD).

My training is in psychology, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Compassion Focused Therapy (CFT) and EMDR therapy. Due to my extensive experience of using EMDR and the extra training that I have completed, I have achieved the status of becoming an accredited accredited EMDR consultant.

I have over 20 years’ experience of working in the field of mental health and have lectured at the University of Chester where I presented on CBT and Trauma-Focused CBT. I have been awarded honorary lecturer status by the University of Chester for my role as a clinical supervisor on their High Intensity Talking Therapies Course.

My special interest is in the mental well-being of military veterans, complex trauma, and attachment traumas.

I provide clinical supervision to other psychotherapists, EMDR practitioners and trainee therapists as part of their ongoing development.

Since qualifying as a counsellor in 1996, I have worked continuously as a psychological therapist in a range of settings that include registered charities, private practice and the NHS. My last post in the NHS was as a Psychological Therapies Lead.

As an experienced and versatile psychotherapist, I am fully qualified and accredited as a Drug and Alcohol Counsellor, Cognitive Behaviour Therapist (CBT) and Eye Movement Desensitization Reprocessing (EMDR) Therapist.

I am a certified and accredited Mindfulness Teacher and received training in Compassion Focused Therapy (CFT) and Dialectic Behaviour Therapy (DBT). I have taught as a visiting lecturer on both the Doctorate in Counselling Psychology and the Doctorate in Clinical Psychology programmes at the University of Manchester.

It is my hope that, if you were to come to me for therapy, you would very quickly feel that you were in the right place to resolve the problems that brought you to therapy in the first place. Not only would you feel welcome, respected and in control of what happens within our work, you would also feel safe in the knowledge that your difficulties are being taken seriously, you would be helped to understand why you are struggling with these difficulties and you would have a clear sense of what you and I needed to do together to help you move on in your life.

I primarily work now with adults who are struggling with the impact of past events which have been traumatic.

I am a Counselling Psychologist with 12 years of experience working in private practice in South Africa. In 2020 my family and I relocated to the UK and since then I have been working in the NHS with adults experiencing complex emotional difficulties. I believe therapy can play an important part in the process of exploring and resolving deep personal struggles, which almost always have their roots in early family and childhood experiences. The ways in which we have learned to cope and protect ourselves in early relationships can often become the source of pain and distress in the present.

My specialist interests include working with people with who have experienced complex trauma which impacts on the way they relate to themselves, others and the world around them. This includes those whose experiences have left them with depression, anxiety, overwhelming shame, and extreme emotional reactivity in relationships.

I am also passionate about working with people with neurodivergent conditions, particularly autism. This includes those who suspect they may be on the spectrum but have not yet been diagnosed.

Each client I work with receives a unique and personal therapy experience based on my integrative approach and belief in “healing through meeting”. Approaches that inform my therapy include Schema Therapy, Mentalization Based Therapy, Contextual Therapy and attachment science.

Ultimately, I believe the value of therapy is in providing a safe and confidential space to explore powerful experiences and overwhelming feelings, and to identify and creatively utilise these as opportunities to work towards restoration and hope.

I am a registered HCPC clinical psychologist with a wealth of experience working with a diverse range of clients including children, adolescents, and adults. My approach is deeply person-cantered, focusing on understanding you as a whole individual and collaboratively customising therapy sessions to meet your specific needs.

I utilise an integrative approach, drawing from a range of therapeutic approaches, including Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Compassion Focused Therapy (CFT), and Narrative Therapy. This allows me to provide tailored interventions, whether you require concise, targeted support or more in-depth exploratory sessions.

I understand that each person's story is unique and there are countless reasons why someone might seek therapy, whether it's a moment of difficulty or a longstanding challenge impacting on your personal growth. My expertise lies in supporting individuals struggling with difficulties related to anxiety, low mood and trauma. Furthermore, I place great value in helping individuals rediscover or connect with their inherent values, skills, and strengths.

I understand that taking that initial step into therapy can be daunting, which is why finding a therapist with whom you can trust and can connect with is essential. I offer a welcoming and non-judgmental space where you can openly discuss your current challenges, feel heard, and receive the support you need to take the next steps in your personal journey.

I am a BACP registered person-centred counsellor with experience working with adults in various settings, from counselling women in a women’s charity to working with men as a suicide prevention therapist.

While my approach is primarily person-centred, I am aware of the dangers of purism and have therefore attended professional development courses about trauma-informed approaches, brief solution-focused therapy and compassion-focused therapy. I have over ten years of experience working with neurodivergent adults and adults with learning disabilities.

I can offer a therapeutic relationship in which you will be deeply heard and accepted without judgement. Together we can work to make sense of what is happening for you right now, challenge narratives, explore core beliefs, build resilience, nurture self-compassion and awareness, and find new ways forward.

My focus is on supporting you through your challenges, and empowering you to strengthen your sense of self, so you can make the changes that feel right for you.

I believe you are the expert on your life and would love to help you believe that too. When we have the right support, things can change for the better, no matter how unlikely it may seem.

I am an experienced psychotherapist with 24 years of work in mental health, spanning across both the NHS and the private sector. I am a BABCP Accredited Cognitive Behavioural Therapist and an NMC Registered Mental Health Nurse.

I have worked extensively with young people and adults in a variety of settings including inpatient and outpatient services. Several years of my career have been spent teaching mental health and CBT in further education settings.

My main interest areas are in helping clients with stress, and anxiety disorders. I also work with those experiencing panic attacks; excessive worry; phobias; OCD; as well as working with distressing memories, flashbacks, and trauma. I have extensive experience helping treat work-related stress.

My clinical approach includes creating an opportunity for the client to tell their story and developing a comfortable environment for them to discuss their concerns and views. This enables us to develop a positive understanding of the difficulties being faced and identify the best mode to address them.

The main aim of therapy is to find a positive resolution in a confidential and safe environment in which we identify realistic goals and support you to achieve your desired outcome.

I understand how difficult it can be seeking support at a time when you may not be feeling your best. Therapy is a two-way process and for me the interaction and opportunity to solve problems and find a positive outcome for my clients is hugely rewarding. Bearing witness to my client’s transition towards living a more fulfilling life based on their values continues to inspire me.
