The Journey
About Linda: Linda (me!) is a qualified EMDR Adlerian informed psychotherapist, and has worked in the field of mental health helping people find relief and ways to negotiate their problems for over 15 years. I work in a targeted, caring and empathic way, recognising the joint process of practitioner/client (the therapeutic relationship) to help you achieve your goals.
​
I am a registered social worker with Social Work England and qualified in 1998. I became an Approved Mental Health Professional in 2008. I have been working with all ages for many years helping people to find clarity and calm. I have been using EMDR since 2022, and am fully qualified to practice, having regular clinical supervision. I am working towards EMDR Europe registration.
All of my practice is underpinned by research and evidence bsed. This, you will find references to what works from research on this page.
​
The Journey: The counselling process underpins EMDR, and working together we can negotiate a pathway to help your journey. This will allow you to help shape the therapy you need.
My practice is underpinned by Adlerian psychotherapy which is both congruent with EMDR, is proven to help with trauma, is holostic and allows you to reach your goals.(1; 1a; 1b; 1c).
EMDR underpinned with Adlerian ethos, is therefore worth investing in for value as well as for proven relief of many persistent mental health and emotional issues such as: long-term depression (2), PTSD (3), and Trauma (4), including those associated with adverse childhood experiences (3).
I also offer Spiritual Accompaniment for individuals and small groups. Please contact for more details. I am a Spiritual person welcoming all faiths, and specifically follow Awakened Christianity.
I qualified from Christian Life College, Bishops Gate Institute in London in 1987.
