Therapy

Therapy for trauma, anxiety, stress and longstanding emotional difficulties. Supportive, evidence-based therapy in Market Harborough or online.

What is Therapy?

I take a collaborative approach to all of the types of therapy I offer, and the decision as to what you want to focus on and explore will be agreed jointly.  Some people prefer to focus on the ‘here and now’ whilst others want to look deeper at the origins of their thinking, emotions and behaviour.

Therapy sessions last for 50 minutes.  The first session will be an assessment, where we will explore your issues in more detail and get some background information about your life.    We will then agree with some goals of therapy.  I generally recommend having weekly sessions, although I can offer fortnightly if this suits you better.

My therapy days are Wednesday and Thursday 9:00am – 5:00pm. I offer evening online sessions on a Monday.

Types of therapy offered

Three types of therapy that I integrate into my sessions are Schema Therapy, EMDR and Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT). Please click below to learn more.

Video Therapy

I am able to offer video therapy sessions online, to individuals who may find coming to my clinics difficult.  You may want to consider video therapy if you: 

 – prefer to access support from your own home
– want to fit therapy around work/ childcare commitments
– are living abroad but you want a UK based therapist
 – travel a lot, so video therapy will allow you to have regular sessions 
– require flexibility around times for the sessions

Private Healthcare Insurance

I am a registered provider of therapy with the following healthcare insurers: 

•  AXA,
•  Aviva
•  BUPA
•  Vitality
•  WPA

If you currently have health insurance please first check your policy document to see if you are covered for therapy.  If so, contact your insurer and follow their instructions. On some occasions, you may need to see a GP to be assessed first.   

Please get in contact if you wish to discuss therapy via private healthcare insurance so that we can talk through how this works.

Support in a Crisis

I am unable to offer crisis support. I cannot offer therapy to individuals who are suicidal, regularly self harm, or who have ongoing contact with a crisis team. This is because a multi-disciplinary team (MDT) approach is required during these times. Please see my mental health helpline page for services that can help if you are in crisis.
