Who I Am and What I Do
I have worked as a counsellor and psychotherapist within the NHS in a large doctors' surgery and now exclusively in private practice. Over the years I have worked with hundreds of clients and have thousands of hours of clinical experience.

My psychotherapy training and approach is as a NeuroLinguistic psychotherapist. I have a diploma in Ericksonian hypno/psychotherapy and I have also trained and experienced in the clinical application and use of EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitisation & Reprocessing) for the treatment of traumas and flashbacks often diagnosed in PTSD (Post Traumatic Stress Disorder) and other trauma related complaints.

The psychotherapeutic approaches I use are:

• NLPt (NeuroLinguistic Psychotherapy)
• Ericksonian hypno/psychotherapy
• EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization & Reprocessing)
• CBT (Cognitive Behavioural Therapy)
• REBT (Rational Emotive Behavioural Therapy)

And the Life Skills I teach are:

• NVC (Non Violent Communication)
• Cardiac Coherance
• Health, exercise & relaxation

I continue to integrate new learning into my work and do what I know to work.

I am an accredited member of the NLPtCA that sets practitioner ethical guidelines and complaints procedures, with which I comply, and a registered psychotherapist with the UKCP and an accredited therapist member of the EMDR UK and Ireland Association.

I am trained and experienced in working safely, effectively, and in as few sessions as possible, with the following kinds of disturbance:

- Low mood and depression
- Low self esteem and confidence
- Panic
- Anxiety and fear
- Trauma and fear
- PTSD (Post Traumatic Stress Disorder)
- Anger and rage
- Intrusive thoughts
- Obsessions and compulsions
- Relationship issues at home, work & play
- Stress
- Work life balance
- Just being stuck
