Providing compassionate evidence based assessment and treatment for Post Traumatic Stress Disorder and Anxiety Disorders. My current favourite quote is "You are not Lazy, unmotivated, or stuck. After years of living your life in survival mode, you are exhausted. There is a difference" - Nahela Homer. It really resonates with me because therapy should be about helping you to shift perspective from that critical inner voice that tears you down and makes you feel distress (whether it's shame, guilt, anxiety, depression or anger), into a more balanced and compassionate perspective. You deserve to live a life you love, to work towards being who you want to be, or to do the things you want without fear or shame holding you back. I have worked for a number of years in the specialist trauma services working with people who have complex PTSD and PTSD using a range of evidence based therapies including EMDR, Cognitive Processing Therapy, Narrative Exposure Therapy, Trauma Focused Cognitive Therapy and Compassion Focused Therapy. I am particularly passionate about working with anxiety I know what it's like to live a restricted life because of anxiety/shame. I got the help I needed and it's made me passionate about being there for others who are experiencing similar challenges in their own lives. We are all individual so everyone's journey is different but we are all the same in that when it's difficult, connection and support really help
