BACP Accredited Counselling, Clinical Supervision & EMDR Therapy
EMDR Therapy
EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) is an evidence-based psychotherapy that helps people recover from trauma and other distressing life experiences, including PTSD, anxiety, depression, and other psychological disturbances. EMDR is recognised as a N.I.C.E Recommended therapy specifically for Post Traumatic Stress Disorder.
EMDR employs a unique eight-phase treatment approach that systematically targets the past, present, and future aspects of a stored memory. After a proper history taking and treatment planning through a series of guided eye movements or other dual attention stimulation, EMDR helps to reduce the emotional impact of disturbing memories and its associated negative effects, allowing the person to move forwards in their life.
Counselling & CBT
Counselling is an umbrella term that covers a wide range of talking therapies often integrating elements of other therapeutic approaches such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) or Gestalt therapy what makes counselling unique is that it works at greater relational depth to support the person to achieve the best outcome. People often choose counselling to address underlying emotional or psychological issues that they are experiencing as a result of the impact of challenging events or experiences that are having a negative impact on their lives. This type of work can range from a single session for one off issues to multiple planned sessions in order to support deeper seated issues.Common themes that we work with include: Stress, anxiety, burnout, trauma bereavement, relational issues, self esteem, anger and depression addiction and loss, identity.
Clinical Supervision
Supervision is a specialised form of mentoring for practitioners responsible for undertaking challenging work with people.
We provide management and clinical supervisory services to healthcare practitioners, managers and therapists requiring additional independent support. Themes of this type of work include supervisory focus around personal and career development, case load management, emotional and psychological resilience inside and outside the workplace
