Types of therapies

We have a wide range of therapies we can offer based on individual need and preference. We specialise in trauma therapy but we are also aware that client needs vary depending on the individuals experiences.

Being there for someone in their time of need and creating a safe space rooted in empathy and compassion is important to us as a service.
We offer trauma focused Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) and Eye Movement Desensitisation Reprocessing (EMDR) for PTSD. We are also trained in Schema Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Narrative Exposure Therapy (NET) and Compassion Focused Therapy.

Evidence based CBT is used for all the other difficulties such as Depression, OCD, BDD, Social Anxiety, Generalised Anxiety Disorder, Panic and Health Anxiety.

As a service we also can offer Individual Counselling and Couples Therapy for Depression, delivered by our experienced integrated counsellors who have years of experience working in the NHS and in private practice.

Counselling and talking therapies provide support for those going through a challenging time or experiencing emotional difficulties. We can provide therapy for a range of issues, including (but not limited to):

Loss and Bereavement

We can facilitate a space for you to grieve and heal from your emotional pain.

Relationships

We can support you in becoming better able to form and maintain meaningful and satisfying relationships with other people: including friends and family. We also work with couples.

Self Awareness

We offer support in becoming more aware of thoughts and feelings that may have been blocked or denied. We can also help you to develop a more accurate sense of how you are perceived by others.

Self Acceptance

We offer support in developing a more positive attitude towards the 'self', marked by an ability to acknowledge areas or experiences that have been subjected to self-criticism and rejection.

Lindsay

I had already had therapy with someone else prior to starting with Viola and honestly, it wasn't for me. Nothing worked and I had convinced myself that therapy was a load of rubbish. Then I met Viola and the experience was completely different. We didn't dive straight in, she got to know me, she shared information about herself which put me at ease and slowly we delved into the many issues I had been left with after a serious trauma.

Chiara

Viola has been my therapist for many years. She is a genuine and kind person who anyone would be lucky to have as their therapist. She’s flexible in her schedule and very accommodating, it is especially wonderful to have somebody from our community providing support to our community.

Louise

Viola’s extensive knowledge and expertise are matched by her intuitive and empathic approach. She is the perfect therapist for me because she explores alongside me and challenges me. The experience has been truly transformative and I feel very grateful to have been led to her. Recommend with all my being!

John

Viola has been amazing. Incredibly supportive and helpful, I would highly recommend her.

Jay-Ann

I’d recommend Viola and Fresh Start Psychological Services every time. I’ve felt safe, supported, listened to, validated, and held accountable, and I’ve seen a huge improvement in my mental health. I met Viola initially through a charity, and I connected with her so well that it only made sense to continue with her services.
