Therapy Options
Counselling for Adults
A calm, confidential space for you to explore what’s going on—without judgment.
Adult counselling can help you understand your emotions, manage anxiety or low mood, break unhealthy patterns, and feel more connected to yourself and others. Whether you’re facing a specific challenge or just feel like something isn’t quite right, therapy can support meaningful, lasting change.
We’re here to walk alongside you.
Counselling for Young People
Growing up isn’t easy—and young people often carry more than they let on.
We offer age-appropriate counselling for children and teens aged 10+, providing a safe space where they can express what they’re feeling, develop emotional awareness, and build confidence in who they are. We work at their pace, using creative or talk-based approaches depending on their needs.
Support now can make a lasting difference.
Eye Movement Desensitisation Reprocessing Therapy (EMDR)
EMDR Therapy (Eye Movement Desensitisation and Reprocessing)
EMDR is a powerful, evidence-based therapy for processing trauma, distressing memories, or deeply held emotional blocks.
It helps reduce the intensity of past experiences so they feel less overwhelming in the present. EMDR doesn’t require you to go into every detail of your story—and many people find it gentler than they expect.

Roxanne - Director, Counsellor and EMDR Therapist
Welcome, I'm Roxanne, a qualified counsellor and EMDR therapist passionate about helping people heal from trauma and emotional distress. I offer a warm, safe, and non-judgmental space for you to explore your experiences and begin your journey towards recovery and resilience.
My Approach
I specialise in Eye Movement Desensitisation and Reprocessing (EMDR), an evidence-based therapy that helps people process and release the emotional impact of traumatic or distressing memories. EMDR works by activating the brain’s natural healing ability, allowing you to move past painful experiences and reduce the emotional charge they carry. Whether you're struggling with PTSD, anxiety, low self-esteem, or the effects of childhood trauma, EMDR can help restore a sense of balance and control in your life.
I believe in meeting each person with compassion and respect, tailoring my approach to suit your unique needs and goals. Together, we’ll work towards helping you feel stronger, more empowered, and more connected to yourself.

I believe that an individual has the ability to achieve what they want from therapy, and it is my role to support them in doing that. Building and maintaining a relationship with a client is hugely important and I put the individual at the centre of that relationship.
I work integratively which means I see a client as an individual and choose a therapeutic approach (or approaches) that will work for them and what they bring to counselling. It may be important to work with what has happened in childhood or have goals to work on specific issues. Or it may be that a client just needs a space where someone listens to them who isn’t involved in their day-to-day life. I offer all my clients a safe, non-judgemental space, providing empathy and respect.

Hi, I’m Tanya, an integrative counsellor who works with both adults and young people aged 11+. I am dedicated to offering clients a welcoming, safe, non-judgmental, and empowering counselling space, where they feel able to share the challenges they may be facing. Through this space and providing a trusting therapeutic relationship, I hope to support clients explore and gain a greater understanding of themselves.
I am passionate about the mental health of young people, and I've found that the counselling space allows them time to voice their concerns, feel heard and understood. I have experience of working in areas such as anxiety, exam stress, low self-esteem, grief and traumatic experiences. I also have experience of working with neurodivergent young people.
With adults, I have experience of working in areas such as depression, anxiety, domestic abuse, childhood trauma, low self-confidence, life transitions, physical health issues and relationship difficulties.
The client is at the heart of the counselling relationship and working integratively means that I adapt my skills, training and experience to best suit each person. My aim is to listen carefully to the client’s feelings and work at their own pace.
I know from my own personal experience of counselling that it can be challenging but an incredibly worthwhile and enriching experience. I think we are all continually growing and learning about ourselves and it is a privilege to support clients in this process.
