Trauma – Rewind Therapy and EMDR
1-1 therapy usually means meeting for a 50 minute session once a week or fortnight, either online or in person. To break it down, often, around 5 minutes of the session may be spent looking at goals we set the last time we met, 30 minutes might be exploring a current difficulty, 10 minutes might be pulling it together to see what we can learn or understand from it, and 5 minutes might be setting some things to try out or explore over the course of the week, given what we’ve learned. We can work in a timelimited way or through ongoing sessions. I often work with people for between 6 months and 2 years, but we work out what is right together.
If we think it useful, we might use tools like EMDR or Rewind therapy to help process painful memories or experiences.
I am a UKCP accredited Psychotherapist and Supervisor, who, alongside a private practice and consultancy, has worked as a clinical lead across the NHS, local authorities and the voluntary sector, helping hundreds of people turn their pain into power.
I first came into therapy because of my own difficulties finding my place in the world, and use this lived experience of ‘just how messy messy can get!’, to bring humour, joy and hope to the trickiest places of the human soul.
I am currently Clinical and Care Lead for Innovation for South East London NHS ICB.
As someone with ADHD, I specialise in helping people find the gold in their neurodiversity.
My fees are on a sliding scale:
£80 - £130 online, or in person in Hertford, depending on your circumstances.

Contrary to our worst fears (- the ones that wake us up at 2am and keep us from drifting back to sleep-) if you're stuck, and you're committed to working hard, you definitely don't have to stay stuck.
In therapy, I walk alongside you in your unique process of 'turning towards' your life so that it actually feels like your life. And this turns out to be the most rewarding work you can do in your whole life. Your friendships, your relationships, your work, that nagging and quietly horrifying sense that everyone else is living a slightly better life than you—the beautiful thing is, although tackling problems is hard, it is also endlessly surprising, joyful, sometimes hilarious, and illuminating.
