Psychologist

Our VIP team includes various psychologists. They treat symptoms such as depression, anxiety, insomnia, worrying or feeling unsafe. We also provide trauma therapy. This can relate to something distressing that happened recently or to events in the past. We also offer short-term schema therapy. This looks at patterns in your thoughts, feelings and actions: what is causing them and what can you do to change them? Such therapy can help address recurring problems with relationships, self-image, emotions or behaviour. We also treat symptoms relating to psychosis such as hearing voices, seeing shadowy figures or feeling paranoid.

Our psychologists also carry out diagnostic assessments. These involve us exploring what is going on and which help is most appropriate together. For example, we look at such factors as intelligence, autism, ADHD and personality. This gives us a better picture of your strengths, vulnerabilities and what you need help with so we can provide appropriate support.
