SERVICES

Clinical Psychology

Clinical psychology is a formulation-driven approach to treating mental health difficulties and emotional problems. After the diagnostic assessment is completed, a treatment plan is formulated and shared with the client

Adolescent and adult clients may present with a variety of mental health problems such as anxiety disorders (health anxiety, OCD, panic disorder, social anxiety, PTSD / C-PTSD, and generalised anxiety "constant worrying"), mood disorders (depression, stress, trauma, bipolar disorder, low self-esteem), eating disorders, addiction, chronic health conditions, self-harm and suicidal behaviour.

I am also supporting young people to cope with cyber bullying and how to use technology safely.

The fee for a 50 minute session is £100.

Trauma Therapy

Trauma-informed and focussed therapeutic work is provided to young people and adults.

The definition of trauma within an EMDR treatment process is a term used for painful memories a client is presenting with, which elicit emotional pain, shame, guilt, anxiety, and impact on the overall well-being and mood. Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) or Complex Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (CPTSD) can be seen as normal human reactions to an abnormal event/s. When something difficult is experienced, the nature of the event and the accompanying emotions can be hard for the brain to process. The information ‘gets stuck’ in a raw, undigested state in key parts of the brain and can be replayed (via intrusive thoughts, flashbacks or nightmares) as the brain tries to make sense of it. The main aim of therapy therefore is to reevaluate the memory and find a way to process it so it can be properly filed away. This in turn will resolve the uncomfortable symptoms and relieve the PTSD.

Fees range from £100 - £150 depending on session length.

CONSULTATION AND SUPERVISION

I provide consultation to schools and other services. This involves training of staff, one-off or continuous assessment of and treatment for individuals in need for therapeutic support.

Consultation and training fee is £150 per hour.

I provide supervision to qualified clinical psychologists. Supervision fee is £100 / 50min

HIGH SENSITIVITY

As a special interest, I have trained in supporting individuals with the trait of high sensitivity (HS). HS is not a disorder; it is a trait found in about 15 - 20% of the population. Highly sensitive people (HSP)

are easily overwhelmed, which is due to their ability to be highly aware of their external and internal world. HSP may have very sensitive sensory systems, can experiences intense emotions and are highly empathic. See here for more information:https://hsperson.com and also feel free to read my article on high sensitivity on my website.

I am supporting families with highly sensitive children (HSC) as well as highly sensitive individuals presenting with or without psychopathology. HSC can often be misunderstood as neurodevelopmental symptoms such as ASD and ADHD. Talk to me to find out more about this.

ADHD COACHING

ADHD coaching is a supportive service designed to help individuals with Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder manage their challenges and harness their strengths. I am working collaboratively with clients to set goals, develop personalized strategies, and improve organization, time management, and focus. This empowering approach fosters self-awareness and builds confidence, ultimately leading to a more fulfilling and productive life. ADHD coaching can provide valuable tools and insights for overcoming obstacles and achieving success.

Session fee is £100 / 50min.
