Thompson Therapy

I am an experienced UKCP Registered psychoanalytic psychotherapist with over 28yrs experience working within the NHS and employed for the past 7yrs as a highly specialist psychotherapist within secondary mental health services. I also see clients in private practice.

I provide short and longer term individual therapy for adults, children and couples. I also offer family consultations. I have an enhanced DBS and abide by the code of ethics set out by the UKCP.

I have extensive experience working with people who present with many different emotional and psychological  difficulties, such as problematic relationships, identity issues, sadness and loss, anxiety and depression – alongside more complex and enduring mental health conditions. Emotional difficulties can often result in self-destructive behaviours which can affect us in every day life and underly relationship conflicts.

I am warm, empathic and able to provide safe space in which past traumatic experiences and current difficult feelings can be thought about and worked through, resulting in symptom relief.
