Dr Annie - Psychologist & Existential Psychotherapist
DCPsych, CPsychol, Chartered Counselling Psychologist
As an experienced psychologist, I work with adults and young people across a range of presentations, including depression and anxiety, trauma, relationship breakdown and family systems, life transitions, those coming out of abusive situations, post-natal depression and birth trauma, grief, bullying and self-harm, gender and sexuality.
I also work with people who are looking for a confidential space to work through career challenges and those who are seeking to move to the next level. Areas of focus may include identifying blocks that are holding you back, confidence and self-esteem building, assistance, navigating interpersonal dynamics in the workplace, and career strategy development.
I have a passion for empowering people to heal, make sense of their lives and achieve balance so that they feel able to move forwards from a place of strength. I work intuitively and will tailor your sessions to meet your specific needs. My focus is always on creating a safe space in which you feel held and truly heard.
My training includes a doctorate in counselling psychology with a focus on existential
psychology, a masters in psychology, specific trauma-related trainings including EMDR and Brainspotting, as well as mindfulness-based cognitive behavioural therapy (MCBT) and HypnoCBT, pre and perinatal psychology, psycho-spiritual psychotherapy, and embodiment work including Somatic Experiencing. I am also trained in Quantum Energy Coaching. Prior to training as a psychologist, I had a successful FTSE100 corporate career. I am also a musician, playing regularly in various symphony orchestras and chamber groups.
I currently live in South Oxfordshire with my family.
