Psychodynamic Therapy in Leicester & Online
A calm, unhurried space where overwhelming thoughts and feelings do not have to be faced alone.
We can reach a point where familiar ways of coping no longer seem to work. Therapy offers a calm, thoughtful space to begin making sense of experiences that feel overwhelming or difficult to understand, at a pace that feels manageable.

Therapeutic Options
Different ways of working, depending on what you need from therapy.
Psychodynamic Therapy
Psychotherapy explores emotional defences that may have developed over time and gradually become difficult to cope with. Having another mind to think alongside our own can help us make sense of past experiences, fears and recurring patterns, and of how they may continue to shape the present.
Neuro-Attuned Psychotherapy
Neuro-attuned psychotherapy recognises that emotional difficulties can sometimes become inseparable from the experience of chronic overwhelm, adaptation and misunderstanding. Therapy offers space to explore these experiences thoughtfully and without judgement.
EMDR Therapy
EMDR is a structured therapeutic approach developed to help people process traumatic experiences. It can also help with experiences that continue to feel overwhelming, distressing, or difficult to move beyond. Sessions are worked through carefully and at a pace that feels manageable.
What brings people to therapy?
People come to therapy for many different reasons. Sometimes the difficulty is clear and immediate; sometimes it is harder to name – a recurring pattern, a loss of confidence, a difficult relationship, or simply an overwhelming feeling of disconnection. Therapy offers space to think about these experiences, and perhaps most importantly, a way to relieve the burden of carrying them alone.
Beginning therapy
In our initial phone conversation or emails, we can discuss what might happen when we first meet, and the kind of things we might talk about. We can also discuss the differences between in-person or online appointments, and choose which feels best for you.
