About me
Hello, I’m Kirstie. I’m a UKCP registered psychotherapist working in person in West Sussex. I offer an integrated therapeutic approach using a range of psychotherapy interventions, to help you make the changes you want to move on with your life. The treatment you receive will be as unique as you are, to help bring about deep and therefore lasting change. Therapy is collabrative, we will work together in helping you make the changes you want to make in your life.
I specialise in working with self-esteem, anxiety and stress, trauma / PTSD, depression, habits and fears; but have the qualifications and experience to deal with a much wider range of issues including chronic pain, fibromyalagia, tinnitus, migraines and functional disorders.
I am also trained in behavioural therapy and coaching for ADHD. I additionally offer therapy if you are suffering from PTSD/Trauma and are also neurodivergent. Using trauma based therapy interventions underpinned with ADHD support to help you stabilise, process, integrate and ultimately move on with your life.
The broad range of approaches that I am trained in and the way that I combine these will completely tailor your therapy to you. My practice offers privacy, space, and support for you to take the time to focus on the issues and goals you have and to help you explore what you want from your life in a non-judgemental environment. I am a recognised provider of psychotherapy with the majority of medical insurers including AXA Health, Aviva, WPA and Vitality.
Training, qualifications & experience
I trained at Masters Level in integrated psychotherapy including EMDR, psychoanalysis, hypnotherapy, behaviourism, psychodynamic therapy, psychopathology, and psychosensorimotor therapy. I have full professional indemnity insurance and in keeping with my professional code of conduct, I undergo regular supervision.
Member organisations
school Registered / Accredited

UKCP standards cover the range of different psychotherapies. Registration is obtained by training or accrediting with one of its member organisations, or by holding a European Certificate in Psychotherapy. Accredited by the Professional Standards Authority.
