EMDR Therapy for Trauma, PTSD and Anxiety - Adults

EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitisation and Reprocessing) is an evidence based therapy recommended by NICE and the World Health Organisation for trauma and PTSD. I am certified in EMDR for adults, children and young people. It is one of the most effective therapeutic approaches I use.


EMDR helps the brain process distressing memories that have become stuck, reducing their emotional charge so they no longer disrupt daily life. It is effective for: trauma and PTSD, childhood adverse experiences, traumatic bereavement, complex PTSD, persistent anxiety and panic, negative self beliefs, and distressing memories that continue to resurface.


Sessions are 90 minutes. Free 15  minute initial consultation available. Call or text 07732 324387.

EMDR Therapy for Teenagers and Children

I hold specialist EMDR certification for children and adolescents, additional training required by EMDR UK before a clinician can deliver this therapy to young people under 14. This is a specialist service that can be genuinely difficult to find in Glasgow.


If your teenager is struggling with anxiety, trauma, bullying, bereavement, social media pressure or persistent low mood, EMDR offers a way to process what they are carrying that does not require them to put everything into words. I also hold Level 4 Play Therapy Skills certification, allowing me to use creative approaches when language feels insufficient.


I am happy to speak with parents first, before any contact with the young person. Call or text 07732 324387 to arrange an initial conversation.

Couples Counselling and Relationship Therapy

Couples come to me at very different stages, some in acute crisis, some quietly drifting apart, some who want to invest in their relationship before problems take hold. I offer couples counselling both in person and online.


I support couples with: communication breakdown, rebuilding trust after an affair, different parenting styles, premarital counselling, managing conflict and stress and exploring what the relationship could become. My approach is collaborative and non-judgemental, I do not take sides. I create space for both partners to be heard.

Sessions are 90 minutes. Call or text 07732 324387.

Anxiety Therapy — Including a Personalised Anxiety Programme

Anxiety is not just a thought pattern, it lives in the body. Over many years of clinical work, I have developed a personalised anxiety programme that begins with the body, helping you regulate the physical experience of anxiety before working with the thoughts and beliefs that drive it. This body first approach reflects how anxiety actually works, working with the physical symptoms.

Individual Counselling and Psychotherapy

I offer individual counselling and psychotherapy for depression, bereavement, low self-esteem, relationship difficulties, life transitions and complex presentations. My approach is integrative and person centred, I draw on transactional analysis, psychodynamic principles and EMDR, but I follow you, not a script.
