About EFIT
The goal of EFIT is to help clients feel emotionally fit and find their emotional balance.
Our emotions are generally adaptive and help us to survive and thrive in life, but they can go awry.
When we feel unable to cope or find ourselves stuck in depressive or anxious states our emotions have become dysfunctional.
EFIT is a therapy to help you get 'back on track' and access your adaptive emotions. Problematic or dysfunctional emotions are worked with and through and restructured with the help of the EFIT therapist.
EFIT is an evidence-based therapy which is both non-pathologizing and non-judgemental.
EFIT therapists support clients by providing them with 'a safe haven' as they work with and through core painful emotions and 'move' forward to restore emotional health and fitness

About EFCT
The goal of EFCT is to restore and rebuild a secure attachment bond between partners and deepen their connection within the couple relationship.
EFCT is a researched evidence-based approach and often considered to be 'the Gold standard' of couple therapy.
A secure attachment bond enables partners to experience a 'felt sense' of connection with the one they love. Both partners can then receive and provide loving care and attention within their relationship.
Unfortunately, attachment injuries or ruptures to the attachment-bond can result in the development of insecure attachment styles and negative cycles.
With the help of the therapist, negative cycles are changed, deeper emotions are accessed and shared and attachment needs and longings are expressed. This begins the process of restoring, repairing and re-establishing secure connection .

About Me
I am a fully qualified and accredited psychotherapist with the National Counselling and Psychotherapy Society.
My main qualification is in Person-Centred Experiential therapy and I have a Master's degree in this approach.
Since qualifying I have continued to expand and grow myself as a therapist and have integrated Emotionally-focused Therapy (EFT) into my practice.
EFT is based on Attachment theory and science and this informs my work. As an EFT therapist my main aim is to offer clients a 'safe haven' to work through their emotions which are often painful, and to build a more secure relationship with Self and Others.
