Therapy tailored to your needs, goals, and pace

Everyone has their own history, their own patterns, their own version of what feeling better actually looks like. There's no one-size-fits-all here.

There's no pressure to have it all figured out before we start. We'll spend time making sense of what's happening for you, what you want to be different, and build an approach that fits your life - not a textbook.

Drawing on CBT, EMDR, Compassion Focused Therapy and somatic approaches, we'll work together at a pace that feels right for you - processing what needs processing, and helping you reconnect with who you are beneath the burnout, stress and exhaustion.

"Therapy is not about adding more to your plate. It's about coming back to yourself."

Therapeutic Approaches

Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT)

CBT focuses on the idea that our thoughts, feelings and behaviours are all connected. When we feel anxious or low, we often find ourselves in a vicious cycle and feel unable to break out of this and become stuck in negative patterns of thinking or behaving that can leave us feeling worse.

CBT helps us to understand how these patterns have developed and we learn how to break out of the negative cycle so that we can feel better. CBT is known as a ‘doing’ therapy and involves trying out new skills and techniques between sessions. We will work together to figure out the best steps forward for you.

Eye Movement Desensitisation and Reprocessing (EMDR)

Eye Movement Desensitisation and Reprocessing (EMDR)
EMDR is a therapy that helps people to recover from difficulties that have been caused by traumatic events in their lives.

EMDR theory suggests that memories are not properly processed following a trauma and therefore are easily triggered which then causes distress and difficult emotions.

EMDR helps the brain to properly store these memories so that they feel less distressing and therefore have less of an impact on a persons’ day to day life.

Somatic-Informed Therapy

Somatic-informed therapy recognises that difficult experiences affect both the mind and the body. When we experience stress, anxiety or trauma, our nervous system can remain in a state of protection, leaving us feeling overwhelmed, disconnected or stuck, even when we understand why we feel the way we do.

Through gentle body awareness and nervous system regulation, somatic-informed therapy helps you reconnect with a sense of safety, calm and balance. Together, we will explore techniques that support both your emotional and physical wellbeing, helping you move forward in a way that feels manageable and sustainable.

What to expect?

Step 1

We start with an informal conversation to explore what has brought you to therapy so I can begin to understand what you need and how I can best support you.

Step 2

At an initial assessment, we'll gently explore the experiences shaping how you're feeling today - recent events, past memories, or other factors affecting your mood and wellbeing.

We'll develop a therapy plan that feels right for you.

Step 3

Once we’ve completed your assessment (usually 1–2 sessions) and agreed how therapy might look for you, we’ll begin regular sessions. We’ll check in on your progress along the way and adjust the plan as needed so the work continues to support your goals.
