About me and my therapy practice
Welcome to my profile! My name is Krissy and I am a Ïã¸ÛÁùºÏ²Ê¾«×¼×ÊÁÏ Accredited Psychotherapist and EMDR therapist specialising in trauma. I recognise it takes courage to seek therapy and I therefore thank you for choosing to read my short profile. Reaching out for therapy may feel scary, and you may not know what to expect, I hope to reduce those fears and give some clarity on how we may work together. I will be alongside you as you enter the journey of therapy, accepting you as you and creating a safe space where you can work through what has brought you here.
Often, in life, we can experience challenges. Maybe ones we were expecting, and at other times ones which completely blindside us. Sometimes how we feel about ourselves is impacted and sometimes we are impacted in ways that we don't understand. People access therapy for a multitude of reasons and whatever has brought you here, you are welcome, and I am here creating an environment filled with warmth, safety and support, free from judgment where I will listen carefully and respectfully and support you in the best way that I can.
Part of the way I work is to treat every client individually, tailoring the way I work to your needs, enabling you to just be with no pressure from me to be anything or anyone other than you. As such, I draw upon various therapies and therapeutic interventions to ensure I am meeting your needs. For those wishing to access a specific therapy such as EMDR or CBT, this is absolutely possible too. We discuss your wants and needs in the first session and decide, together, a treatment plan going forward.
Practice description
As detailed, I draw upon different therapeutic approaches to tailor your intervention to you. We explore what you want or need from the space and navigate it together. I offer both online sessions and face to face sessions in Plymouth. For face to face sessions there is a large carpark on-site and it is also on one level for wheelchair users.
I specialise in trauma and offer EMDR which supports the reprocessing of trauma to reduce the negative impacts it has, you do not need a diagnosis of PTSD to access this therapy as it is useful for many presenting difficulties. I am also neurodivergent friendly, with both personal and professional experience.
I am committed to providing you with enriching experience and as such commit to ongoing courses (I am currently completing a doctorate in counselling psychology) as well as ensuring I am up to date with current research.
My first session
The first session gives an opportunity for you and I to meet and explore what your expectations or hopes for the therapy are. It’s also totally ok if you don’t know that yet too!
For some, a short-term intervention is wanted and for others a longer term, psychotherapy. We will discuss this in the first session alongside what has brought you to the space. For many, weekly sessions suit however that does not work for everybody for various reasons therefore there is no expectation that you must attend weekly and we can discuss this together in that first session.
Feeling like I’m the right therapist for you is really important and this first session begins the building of our therapeutic relationship. My commitment to you is that I will do my best by you.
