I am able to work from The Bird House Therapy Centre in Falmouth, Cornwall. The Bird House is a community of independently operating therapists and practitioners specializing in mental health services, including talking therapy for adults, children, and couples, as well as body therapy for individuals. To find out more information, please follow the link opposite.
I enjoy working with people facing a range of difficulties. EMDR therapy is best known for treating the symptoms of PTSD but can also be helpful for various mental health conditions such as depression, anxiety, and low self-esteem. Additionally, it can effectively reduce performance anxiety in high-functioning individuals, helping to improve athletic performance after injury or to overcome anxiety related to public speaking at work. Please see the 'Perinatal Offerings' section of my website for further information about my specialism.
I am currently only working with adults and older adolescents (17+).
Choosing a therapist you feel comfortable with is a very important decision. I offer a free 15-minute telephone call to discuss your needs and answer any questions you might have before deciding if you would like to book an initial assessment appointment.
Initial assessment
These sessions are for me to gather information about your history and to understand the difficulties you are seeking help with. We will determine if EMDR therapy is a suitable treatment option for you at this time. Together, we will develop a treatment plan for the sessions going forward. This may be completed in one session, but it could take more meetings.
Weekly/fortnightly therapy sessions
Therapy is a process rather than a quick fix, and it is difficult to predict how many sessions will be required. This is something we will regularly discuss together. EMDR therapy consists of different phases. Stabilization and resource development are important phases that vary greatly for each individual. I may draw on a range of theories and interventions as we work together to prepare for trauma processing.
Fees
My fees are £75 for up to 60 minutes. It may be possible to have 90-minute sessions, for which the cost is £110.
Insurance companies and other referrals may be considered, and prices will be discussed upon request.

Please see the separate page for Intensive EMDR therapy packages.
This could be an option for you instead of weekly or fortnightly sessions, offering a condensed and often accelerated pathway to healing
