PTSD

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

With 35 years of experience in a variety of settings, I am a fully-qualified and registered Human Givens therapist.

Whilst my Human Givens journey began in 2009, my work in the field began 20 years prior. I have since taught Human Givens on a counselling skills diploma and worked as a therapist with adults, staff within organisations, teachers, parents, young people and children overseas as well as in the UK (particularly Sri Lanka). In private practice my strengths lie in flexibility and creativity - tailor-making my approach to each client. I use an eclectic approach within the Human Givens framework, knowing exactly why each varied and different technique can be effective in accordance with current neuroscience. 

Difficult and challenging life situations affect us all. Sometimes however, we can get overwhelmed or find it a struggle to cope with these things, whether they are in our surroundings, our relationships or in our own thinking and general emotional health. If you feel that you would benefit from support, then it would be my sincere hope that by working with me you would quickly recover a sense of equilibrium and get back on track 

Dermot has had his own business for nearly 30 years.  He is a father and husband, and through this is aware of the various challenges and difficulties that life can bring with it.

I work face-to-face and remotely via Zoom. 

Online sessions available (therefore no limit on geographical distance)

I spent a number of years working in different coorporate environments in different parts of the world before qualifying initially as a hypnotherapist and later as a psychotherapist.

Alison qualified as an Occupational Therapist in 2001 and since this time she has worked in a variety of health fields.

I have 18 years’ experience, working with children, adolescents and their families in a therapeutic capacity within a variety of educational and supportive settings, including private practice.
