Dr Jordan Quinn

I provide integrative therapy, which means that practices and ideas from different evidence-based therapy approaches are combined to personalise the intervention to your individual needs. The approaches I draw on include; cognitive-behavioural therapy, pragmatic psychodynamic psychotherapy, eye movement desensitisation and reprocessing (EMDR) and systemic psychotherapy.

My therapy practice is a supportive, non-judgmental, empathetic, culturally-affirmative and change-oriented approach to therapy. This means that the therapies that I offer aim to support you to achieve change that will be meaningful to your life and circumstances. Such changes may include, but are not limited to, achieving goals relating to:

Overcoming anxiety difficulties, inclusive of post-traumatic stress, complex post-traumatic stress, and obsessive-compulsive conditions.

Overcoming low mood, feeling a loss of purpose, or existential challenges. 

Developing a greater understanding of the self, which can be in the context of (but not limited to) recovery from traumatic events, making sense of neurodivergent diagnoses, or “third culture kids”.

Making sense of and strategising for, experiencing stress in the workplace.

Exploring the meaning of relationships and expanding on adaptive ways of managing relationships. 

Overcoming difficulties related to experiences of abuse in childhood and/or adulthood. 

Making sense of bereavement and developing meaning from loss.

What are the practicalities about meeting for therapy?

If you wish to pursue therapy with me, we would initially meet for a free 30 minute consultation to establish the fit between your needs and what I can offer. This involves a conversation about what you are hoping to get from therapy. It also offers you an opportunity to gauge if I am the right therapist for you. 

If we agree to work together, we would then contract to meet weekly for 50 minute appointments. Typically, I would suggest that we contract for an initial four sessions, review if you wish to continue, and then work from there with a view of therapy ending within a total of twelve to sixteen sessions. Longer therapy interventions are also available and the length of this would be informed by a jointly developed understanding of your needs.
