Integrative Psychotherapy
Howard Martin
You may be facing a difficult time in your life at the moment and looking for help and support. Are you feeling anxious, uncertain, depressed or generally unhappy? Having sexual or relationship issues? Perhaps you are trapped in patterns of behaviour or addictions that feel out of control? Sometimes we feel unable to talk things through with friends and family and want to speak to someone who is not involved and is trained to help. That’s where I can help as a psychotherapist. I can work with you by providing a space in which you can talk about and understand your situation and think about possible changes. Together, we can identify underlying themes and patterns of behaviour that get in the way of a happy and productive way of life and I can support you in achieving the life, relationships and well-being you wish for.

Couples and Individual Psychotherapeutic Counsellor
Jo-anna Andree
My contemporary working model integrates concepts from the psychoanalytical, cognitive behavioural and psycho-dynamic theories within a humanistic philosophy and systemic thinking. Techniques from these approaches blended with new insights from relational transactional analysis, neuroscience and mindfulness create my evolving working model.
I am a registered member of the BACP and offer face-to-face, on-line and telephone counselling. In order for clients to create new levels of self discovery and growth I tailor each process to complement their unique personality, circumstances and needs. I have undertaken robust post graduation training in couples counselling at The Institute of Systemic Therapy.
The qualities of caring, acceptance and respect create the emotional connection and safe context necessary for clients stories to unfold. The powerful elements of my own humility, curiosity, and genuine interest enhance the process. I assume a non-expert stance and listen and respond in a way that focuses on ideas or meanings rather than content alone.
My practice is culturally sensitive to accommodate our complex society. Establishing trust, building rapport and creating context for understanding couples and individuals needs are at the heart of my work. I assist clients with a range of relational, behavioural and mental health issues as well as providing support during challenging events and seasons of change or self-development.
