Services
EMDR Therapy
Eye Movement Desensitisation and Reprocessing (EMDR) helps process traumatic memories through guided eye movements. This evidence-based approach effectively treats PTSD, phobias, and anxiety disorders. Sessions may require extended time for optimal results.
Brainspotting
Brainspotting identifies trauma-related eye positions to access and process deep emotional wounds. Developed by David Grand, this technique helps resolve chronic stress and traumatic experiences stored in the body.
Sensorimotor Psychotherapy
Sensorimotor Psychotherapy integrates body awareness with traditional talk therapy to address trauma stored in physical patterns. This somatic approach helps regulate nervous system responses to past traumatic experiences.
Couples Therapy
Couples therapy addresses relationship challenges through structured sessions focusing on communication patterns and emotional dynamics. Imago and Encounter-Centred approaches help partners develop deeper understanding and connection.
Depression Counselling
Specialist depression counselling explores underlying causes of low mood and emotional distress. Long-term psychotherapy addresses deep-seated patterns while short-term options focus on immediate symptom relief and coping strategies.
