About me and my therapy practice

I am a highly motivated individual who is caring and passionate about providing therapy to those in need, by using an integrative approach, this includes Cognitive behavior therapy, Person centred and psychodynamic therapy approaches. I believe this collaborative approach is beneficial as therapy is not one style suits all. 

I am a qualified Integral Eye Movement therapist, this focuses on trauma and identity aspects through eye movement, in order to address the impact trauma has and is having on their lives and provide an alternative therapy approach which is much less invasive and less traumatising than conventional therapy approaches

I am able to gain a true felt sense for each and every individual and apply evidence based models to help provide them with the best model to suit needs, I do this whilst offering and emotional support in a non judge mental safe space.

I believe it is imperative to be respectful, Compassionate, Responsible and mature with good communication and personal skills. I practice the Ïã¸ÛÁùºÏ²Ê¾«×¼×ÊÁÏ code of ethics and principles both in my working roles and personal. I believe it is important to embody these and practice them as a way of being, they also reflect how passionate I am about helping others empower themselves in their own lives to tackle change and also highlight what is keeping this from happening.

It is the ability to truly put myself in others frame of reference and offer no judgments just autonomy and genuineness has been key to forming, building and maintain trusting relationships overtime which has enabled profound and effective change for clients as well as creating self awareness in their lives to recognise patterns and incorporate change. I have experience working with clients who have.

Qualifacations

  1. Bachelors (BA HONS) degree in counselling and psychotherapy. 
  2. Foundation degree in counselling and psychotherapy.
  3. NCFE CACHE level 3 diploma in counselling skills.

Practice description

I am an integrative therapist with extensive experience working with various issues relating to mental health such as anxiety, depression, trauma, bereavement, suicidal ideation, relationships & family dynamics as well as attachment, self esteem/worth, motivation as well as many more.

My practice focuses solely on you and your needs through a client lead approach.

Types of therapy I offer are :

*Person centred/ Humanistic therapy*

Humanistic therapies focus on self-development, growth and responsibilities to help individuals recognise their strengths, creativity and choice. By working with a humanistic counsellor, you are supported in identifying and overcoming any blocks that are preventing you from achieving your full potential.

*Cognitive behaviour therapy, CBT*

Behavioural therapies are centred around understanding how we think (cognitive) and/or the way we behave. These therapeutic approaches recognise that it is possible to change, or recondition, our thoughts or behaviour to overcome specific problems.

*Trauma focused therapy*

Integral eye movement therapy (IEMT) helps bring about rapid change through the use of eye movement and helps you address and resolve the question, "how did this person learn to feel the way they feel about the things that they feel bad about?"

Solution focused therapy*

Solution-focused therapy (SFBT) also known as solution-focused brief therapy or brief therapy, is an approach to psychotherapy based on solution-building rather than problem-solving. While it acknowledges present problems and past causes, SFBT predominantly explores an individual's current resources and future hopes. This can help you look forward and use their own strengths to achieve your goals.

I provide a safe and confidential space for you to discuss your needs and formulate a plan to help you achieve the life you want. I believe the best investment you can make is in yourself and I am there to support you through your journey.

My first session

I offer a free 20 minute telephone/online consultation that helps me understand how best to help you, I feel it’s really important to connect with each other to enable you to feel most comfortable addressing your needs.
