About me

My Name is Ramsha Butt, I am an accredited CBT and EMDR therapist.

I am passionate about mental health. Perhaps you have ADHD, or are wondering whether you might have ADHD, or have only recently begun to understand yourself through a neurodivergent lens.

You may struggle with procrastination, overwhelm, emotional regulation, motivation, organisation, relationships, confidence or feeling like you are constantly falling behind. You might also experience anxiety, low mood, burnout or the lasting impact of difficult or traumatic experiences.

I offer a warm, practical and non-judgemental approach to therapy, with a particular interest in ADHD and neurodivergence, as well as anxiety, trauma and emotional difficulties. I work primarily using Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) and EMDR, tailoring therapy to your individual needs.

CBT can be particularly helpful when you feel caught in cycles of negative thinking, anxiety, avoidance, self-criticism or unhelpful behaviours. Together, we can understand what keeps these patterns going and develop practical ways of responding differently.

EMDR can be helpful when past experiences continue to affect you in the present. This might include trauma, distressing memories, experiences of rejection or bullying, difficult childhood experiences, relationship trauma or other experiences that have left you feeling stuck.

I also understand how important culture, family, faith and identity can be when seeking therapy.

As someone with South Asian cultural understanding and a Muslim background, I appreciate that experiences of mental health, family expectations, relationships, marriage, identity and emotional wellbeing can be influenced by cultural and religious values.

For some people, there can be an additional layer to navigating therapy when you come from a South Asian or Muslim background, particularly when ideas around family, responsibility, privacy, faith, shame, expectations or "what will people think?" are involved.

Training, qualifications & experience

I have over 14 years’ experience working in mental health across the NHS and private sector, supporting adults with anxiety, mood disorders, trauma and emotional difficulties.

I hold a Master’s in Cognitive Behavioural Psychotherapy and a BSc in Psychology, with specialist training in EMDR, ADHD assessment and diagnosis, and long-term health conditions.

I have a particular interest in ADHD, neurodiversity and supporting adults with emotional regulation, anxiety, confidence and executive functioning difficulties.

I also offer culturally sensitive therapy, with an understanding of South Asian culture and Muslim backgrounds. I use a compassionate, collaborative approach, drawing on CBT and EMDR to tailor therapy to each client.
