About me and my practice
My therapeutic approaches stem from my core values as a person; relational, person-centred and compassionate to help you explore yourself and your relationship with others. You may feel like the same problems and relationship patterns keep repeating themselves, despite your best efforts to move on with your life. You may not be quite able to define exactly what you are feeling, or your emotions might seem overwhelming, as if you cannot understand or control them. This often involves experiencing deep sadness, sorrow, anger, shame and guilt.
I am highly skilled in many psychotherapeutic approaches including EMDR, Parts work, schema therapy, solution focused, ACT, CBT, and integrative therapy. I receive monthly supervision in CBT, integrative counselling and EMDR via accredited supervisors to maintain my registrations and ensure my practice is within the BACP ethical guidelines and to ensure your safety. I also regularly attend CPD study days to ensure my practice is evidence based and current.
Experience
I have a long-standing career in mental health & psychological therapies spanning more than 30 years. I also work with the media to offer my expertise in different mental health areas related to research or clinical practice. My published research as an academic has been in the areas of mental health, behaviour change and delivery of psychological interventions (under my previous name Huws-Thomas).
I have worked with people experiencing a wide range of issues over these years from mild to severe and enduring mental health difficulties and have used a variety of different helping approaches under supervision. I also work with the media to offer my expertise in different mental health areas related to research or clinical practice.
