Trauma

Having seen a close friend benefit greatly from receiving Human Givens Therapy I decided to become a therapist.

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.

I have always had a genuine interest in helping and supporting people.

I am a paediatric nurse and qualified school nurse with many years of experience working with children, young people and their parents in and around London.

I run face-to-face sessions in Yorkshire including in Leeds, York, Hull and Bridlington. I run online sessions wherever you are in the world. 

I have a deep understanding about mental health and wellbeing, and experience of working with people in tnany different situations in their lives. Clients feed back that I am calm, warm and approachable - that they feel accepted and comfortable being themselves. The approach aims to help people to overcome problems that might at first feel overwhelming, breaking down complex issues into practical, manageable steps. My goal is to build hope, motivation and a clear focus to achieve the positive changes that matter to you. 

I am a fully qualified Human Givens Therapist working with adults in the counselling practice at Suffolk Mind in Bury St Edmonds.

Extensive experience as a mental health practitioner - worked in NHS for over 25 years in variety of settings. Committed to ongoing Continuous Professional Development and Life-Long Learning.

Lynda has worked for the NHS for 20 years. She has helped to develop mental health services ranging from a forensic secure unit to older peoples services.

From my offices in the heart of Suffolk, I am able to help with all forms of emotional distress.

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