Mental Health Support in Hickley
Welcome to my therapy practice in Hinckley, where I provide compassionate mental health support tailored to your unique needs. My services include individual therapy, family therapy, and couples therapy, all grounded in a trauma-informed practice to ensure a safe and supportive environment. Whether you’re seeking guidance through life’s challenges, navigating relationships, or healing from past experiences, we’re here to help. In addition to therapy, I offer specialised programs such as CBT introduction training and Drug & Alcohol Awareness Workshops to promote personal growth and resilience. Let me support you on your journey to mental well-being.

Individual Therapy
Individual therapy works not only for symptom reduction but also for personal growth and greater connection with the self and others. This kind of therapy enables clients to be more open and engaged with their inner experience and with other people—to be more alive. I am a fully qualified Cognitive Behavioural Therapist (CBT) and can offer a program of CBT that has been proven to work very well in treating anxiety, depression, stress, and addiction.
Session Fee: £70

Couples Therapy
Do you and your significant other feel like communication is a struggle, causing conflicts to become difficult to resolve?
Does it seem like you are drifting apart in your relationship?
Are you facing difficulties with managing your family's dynamics?
If you are, please know that you are not alone. Many couples go through rough patches, and it can be overwhelming and heart-wrenching. However, there is a glimmer of hope. As a couple’s therapist, I want to offer you a safe and understanding environment where you and your partner can work through your issues and strengthen your relationship. With my guidance, you can learn to communicate effectively, rebuild trust, and cultivate a deeper connection between you. Together, we can navigate the complexities that come with relationships and guide you toward a more fulfilling and harmonious partnership.
Session Fee: £90

Family Therapy
EFFT, or Emotionally Focused Family Therapy, aims to create positive change within a family's negative interaction cycle. This is achieved by restructuring parent-child interactions and promoting a sense of security through new patterns of connection. Guided by the principles of attachment science, the EFT therapist helps the family develop healthier patterns of parental availability, responsiveness, and communication, especially when facing challenges and transitions. By addressing parental blocks and understanding the child or adolescent's behaviour in terms of attachment needs and fears, EFFT strives to heal wounds and improve relationships. The therapist also recognises the intergenerational impact of mis-attunements and injuries within the family, guiding the family towards a more empathetic and understanding approach.
Session Fee: £90
