LET'S WORK WITH
CHALLENGING FEELINGS

I offer highly specialist psychotherapy for adults and couples seeking a thoughtful, discreet and clinically rigorous approach.

My work is particularly suited to people who are high-functioning externally but experiencing emotional, relational or trauma-related difficulties internally.

I am a Senior Clinical Psychologist with extensive experience in NHS and private practice, offering bespoke therapy that integrates EMDR, Emotion-Focused Therapy (EFT) and CBT.

Sessions are available from my private practice in Notting Hill, London, and online.

I offer private psychotherapy sessions from my consulting room in Notting Hill, West London, as well as online. Appointments are offered by consultation and availability is limited.

PSYCHOTHERAPY

I have profound experience in treating the whole spectrum of mental health problems using a wide variety of evidence-based interventions. In addition to my CBT training, I trained in EFT Emotion Focused Therapy and EMDR. I work with individuals and couples.

I am registered with the HCPC, BABCP, ISEFT and EMDRIA and I am listed in the German register of doctors. I also practice The Flash Technique.

For me, psychotherapy is very much about seeing more options. This includes getting a deeper understanding of what we usually do and why. Feelings play an important role in regulating our actions, so being more aware of our emotions, helps us to steer calmer through difficult situations, and to connect deeper with other people.

In my experience, it is our emotions that play the most central role in that process of change and healing, and changing challenging, often stubborn and blocking feelings is what we will be focussing on in therapy. This kind of therapy is very much 'in the moment': We will activate those emotions in the session and work on them while they happen, finding out more about their function, what they actually want to tell us and how to change them into more comfortable feelings.

My techniques are often creative and pro-active, including chair work, body-centred work and EMDR. This experiential approach allows you to get out of your head and into your feelings.

MY PRACTICE

I am an HCPC-registered Clinical Psychologist and EMDR therapist based in Notting Hill, London, with over 20 years’ experience across the NHS, private practice and international settings.

I specialise in EMDR therapy in London, including attachment-focused EMDR and the Flash Technique, alongside CBT and Emotion Focused Therapy. I work with individuals and couples, often supporting complex trauma, emotional regulation difficulties and relationship problems.

My approach is active and experiential, helping you work directly with difficult emotions in the moment, using methods such as EMDR, chair work and body-focused techniques to support meaningful change.

In addition to the HCPC, I am registered with the BABCP, EMDRIA International, ISEFT and The Flash Technique. In Germany, I am qualified as a Psychological Psychotherapist, and therefore licensed as a doctor.

Emotion Clinic Notting Hill is run by myself and Josie Geddes, a CBT and EMDR therapist. We are both highly trained EMDR practitioners, with advanced training in attachment-focused EMDR, the Flash Technique, and the use of EMDR for complex trauma, OCD, relationship difficulties and personality-related presentations and work closely with a network of trusted EMDR specialists, couple therapists and psychiatrists.
