Integrating Counselling & EMDR Therapy
Starting therapy can feel like a big step. You may be carrying questions, uncertainty, or experiences that feel hard to put into words. My aim is to offer you a space where you feel comfortable, understood, and supported. A space where we work together at your pace, with care and curiosity.
I offer EMDR therapy and an integrative approach to counselling, which means that our work is collaborative and tailored specifically to you. Rather than using a one-size-fits-all method, I draw on a range of therapeutic models to support you on your journey of self-discovery, healing, and change. What we focus on, and how we work, will depend on your goals and what you bring to each session. The techniques I use will be largely seamless within our work together, though we can always discuss them if you have any preferences or questions.
At the heart of my work is the belief that meaningful change happens within a safe, trusting therapeutic relationship. Together, we will explore your experiences in a way that feels respectful, empowering, and manageable. Therapy can help you develop a deeper understanding of yourself, make sense of past and present relationships, process difficult or traumatic experiences, and build new ways of coping and relating to the world around you.
I integrate elements from Person-Centred therapy, Psychodynamic therapy, Mentalisation-Based Therapy (MBT), Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), and where trauma, flash backs and memories are identified we can use Eye Movement Desensitisation and Reprocessing (EMDR). Each of these approaches offers something different, whether that is helping you understand patterns rooted in earlier experiences, developing insight into thoughts and emotions, strengthening emotional regulation, or gently processing trauma. Because every client and every session is different, integrating these models allows therapy to be shaped uniquely around your needs.
I am an accredited member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP) and a member of EMDR Association UK. I work in line with professional ethical standards and adhere to GDPR requirements as set out by the ICO, ensuring confidentiality and care at all times.
