Hi thanks for stopping by

Can I just ask you a few questions...

Do you know who you are?

Do you like yourself?

Do you feel anxious and stressed?

Do you sometimes feel shame about who you are?

Do you feel that you are playing a role in life and not being yourself?

Do you have an inner critic that never appears to leave you alone? Always telling you to do better, be better try harder?

Are you started to question who you are and what you are about?

Do you want to feel free at work,  and in your personal relationships to be able to communicate what you want and need?

Do you feel aware that due to some experiences that you have had in life, you are experiencing symptoms of Trauma?

I am qualified and experienced in helping you explore these issues in an environment where you feel safe seen and listened to and to equip you to make the changes you wish to make for a happier and more enjoyable life.

I use different modalities of treatment when working with clients. One of which is Transactional Analysis (TA). This is a theory of personality and relationships based on the study of specific ego states, a theory of social interaction used as a tool for personal growth and personal change. TA is a way of inquiring into our internal world, looking at what influences it and how it effects our external relationships. 

I also work using Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) which encourages and teaches people to accept their thoughts and feelings rather then fighting them and or feeling guilty about them. ACT paired with mindfulness is a very effective treatment for those with an anxious and busy mind in particular. 

I like to use music and art with with my clients.  I also offer sessions on mindfulness and breath work which the client can go onto use by themselves at home when they are getting caught up in anxiety about the past or the future.

I offer outdoor therapy also.  A relaxed walk through Grenoside woods can be helpful for those clients who particularly  enjoy being outside or find sitting down for long periods of time uncomfortable. I use the backdrop off the outdoors to explore with you internal processes and get curious about what you want in life and how to express that.

I feel passionate about running a practice that is committed to offering therapy to people from all ages and backgrounds who want to seek change in their life,

I hold myself accountable to the BACP and my supervisors as an Anti-discriminatory practitioner.  I believe that all people are to be treated with respect and are equal in value, regardless of race, gender, sexual orientation, impairment, class, religious beliefs or age. 

In my practice difference is welcomed. I run a neuro affirming practice and welcome clients who identify as neurodivergent as well as those who are neuro typical.

Each session is 60 minutes long. You can book via the website. I offer weekly/fortnightly sessions. I also provide a free 15 phone call to touch base first instance.

If you have any questions then please do get in touch

Warm regards

Charlotte
