I have a background in Horticulture and still consider myself in the business of promoting healthy growth, keeping pernicious weeds at bay and developing new and creative pathways.

I have a background in teaching children in primary schools and teenagers / young adults in language schools.

** Currently not taking on new clients ** - If you are affected by anxiety, depression, trauma, sleep or eating difficulties, self-harm, grief, anger or addiction then I can help. If you are feeling stressed or overwhelmed, perhaps experiencing challenges at work or within relationships, I can help. If you are struggling with concentration or academic or performance anxiety, I can help.

With 30 years working and studying in the Health & Social Care sector Carmel now practices as a HG Therapist.

Vivienne offers a safe and caring environment and works with a range of responses to mental and emotional distress.

I help people change their lives as swiftly and simply as possible. Having run a successful private practice for over 20 years, I have had the privilege of helping clients overcome all manner of difficulties, to create strong foundations for a more enjoyable and fulfilling life.

I have over 25 years experience in mental health and well-being.

I have been a secondary school teacher since 2003 and in recent years have become acutely aware of the increase in mental health issues for young people.

My aim is to teach clients calming techniques and develop positive coping mechanisms using tools that are based on current neuroscience. To help them change distress into decisions, plan a way forward whilst facing challenging circumstances, develop achievable goals and have a fulfilling life that works.
