I integrate evidence-based methods tailored to your needs

Including...

EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitisation and Reprocessing)

EMDR is a highly effective, research-backed therapy designed to help process and heal from trauma, anxiety, and distressing life experiences. It was developed in the late 1980s by psychologist Dr. Francine Shapiro, who discovered that specific eye movements could reduce the emotional intensity of distressing memories. Over time, EMDR has evolved into a widely recognised treatment for PTSD and trauma-related conditions.

I use a tapping method of EMDR, which involves gentle bilateral stimulation through rhythmic tapping rather than eye movements. This can be particularly grounding and effective for those who find traditional EMDR overwhelming or difficult to engage with. By reprocessing painful memories in a safe and structured way, EMDR helps reduce emotional distress and promotes healing.

EMDR can be used to treat:

  • Grief and loss
  • Chronic pain
  • Depression
  • Stress and emotional overwhelm
  • Functional Neurological Disorders (FND), including NEAD
  • Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD)
  • Childhood trauma and neglect
  • Anxiety and panic attacks
  • Phobias and fears
  • Low self-esteem and confidence issues

CBT (Cognitive Behavioural Therapy)

CBT is a structured, goal-focused approach that helps identify and change negative thought patterns. It is based on the idea that our thoughts, feelings, and behaviours are connected, and by changing the way we think, we can positively impact how we feel and respond to life’s challenges.

Together, we’ll work on practical strategies to challenge unhelpful beliefs, build coping skills, and create lasting, positive change.

CBT can be used to treat:

  • Anxiety disorders (including generalised anxiety, social anxiety, and panic disorder)

  • Depression and low mood

  • Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder (OCD)

  • Phobias and irrational fears

  • Health anxiety

And...

  • Sleep difficulties and insomnia

  • Stress and burnout

  • Build emotional resilience to navigate daily challenges

  • Low self-esteem and self-criticism

  • Emotional regulation difficulties

  • Functional Neurological Disorders (FND), including NEAD

Working with Functional Neurological Disorders (FND)

Functional Neurological Disorders (FND), including Non-Epileptic Attack Disorder (NEAD), can be distressing and misunderstood. As someone who has personally experienced and overcome NEAD, I understand how overwhelming it can feel to navigate symptoms, medical uncertainty, and the emotional impact of living with FND.

Therapy can help make sense of your experience, manage symptoms, and regain confidence in your body. Using a trauma-focused approach, I offer EMDR, CBT, and nervous system regulation techniques to support your recovery in a safe and compassionate space.

Trauma-Focused Therapy

Trauma can deeply affect both the mind and body, but healing is possible. My trauma-focused approach is designed to help you feel safe, understood, and empowered.

We’ll work at a pace that suits you, using a combination of EMDR, CBT, and other therapeutic techniques to process past experiences and move towards recovery.

Your Healing Journey

Everyone’s experience is unique, and so is the therapeutic process. Whether you’re ready to explore deep healing or just starting to consider therapy, we’ll work together to create a supportive, judgement-free space where you can heal and thrive.
