Attachment and trauma therapy, training and consultancy with Lee Anna Simmons, Art Psychotherapist and supervisor (HCPC), EMDR Consultant (EMDR U.K. and Europe), Group Supervisor (IGA), Rock Climbing Instructor (Mountain Training)
Adults, children and adolescents attend therapy with me both in-person and online. I use Art and EMDR psychotherapy to heal trauma and attachment wounds without the need for re-telling experiences with spoken words; often including psychoeducation combined with mind-body work. The therapy is designed for and with each client to be most effective, which can include working in blocks of time.
