More about Naomi

  • 5 years' experience
  • Female
  • BACP

I have been in the field of therapy and safeguarding for many years and have worked with clients experiencing a wide range of concerns including anxiety, depression, trauma, low self-esteem and loss.

I specialise in working with people who have experienced recent or non-recent child abuse, sexual trauma, domestic abuse and relationship issues as well as people who are struggling with self-harm and suicidal thoughts.

Often child abuse, sexual trauma and domestic abuse can have a psychological, emotional and physical impact that can leave you struggling to cope, constantly hyper-viligent, disconnected from who you are and feeling like there is no way forwards. I focus on helping survivors to feel safe, grounded and in control.

My approach combines psychodynamic therapy to look at your past experiences, parts work to explore different aspects of you like your inner child or inner critic and how they impact you, trauma-informed therapy to ensure stability, psychoeducation to help you understand why your brain and body respond the way they do and creative work to help you express yourself in different ways.

If you are looking to heal, rebuild and live your life freely, I am here for you. You deserve to be happy and I look forward to working with you.

Online counseling, also known as teletherapy, is a method of delivering mental health services through digital means such as video conferencing, phone calls, or messaging platforms. It can be an ideal option for individuals who have difficulty accessing traditional therapy due to geographical distance, time constraints, or personal preferences like privacy and comfort. Many people find it easier to open up from the familiarity of their own space.

Teletherapy has been found to be highly effective, with studies showing that it can produce similar outcomes to in-person therapy, particularly for issues like anxiety, depression, and PTSD. The flexibility and accessibility it offers make it a valuable alternative to conventional therapy settings.
