Our Team

Beverley is based in Somerset, from where she offers in person appointments and intensive EMDR, whilst also supporting people from around the world on-line.

We work with various conditions, such as:

C-PTSD and PTSD,
Dissociative disorders including DID,
Body Dysmorphic Disorder,
Anxiety and Depression,
Emotional overwhelm and Burnout,
Eating disorders,
Nightmares,
Intrusive memories and other dysfunctional coping mechanisms.

We launched in 2012 as a response to the growing demand upon mental health services and the limited resources available for those who need help but for whom there is often no appropriate service to refer into. We work alongside a variety of services, including Berkshire Consultant Psychiatrist, Dr Abrar Hussain at Circle Hospital, Reading for medication reviews, as well as other external agencies, such as Eremos Place, and Windsor Hill Refuge in order to offer a rapid response to need, providing support for people on a day to day basis on an open ended basis.

Her MA was on the subject of Knowing and Not-Knowing within Dissociative Identity Disorder: looking at the effects of child abuse on identity, fragmentation, and memory from a psychodynamic perspective.

Beverley works on-line and in person in Somerset, offering individual psychotherapy and EMDR, and runs a weekly on-line support group for those already in individual psychotherapy working to overcome significant childhood trauma. She has been offering intensive EMDR since 2019, and in 2022 we launched our residential intensive EMDR programme in Somerset. Working intensively with EMDR achieves very exciting and dramatic results which helps people get back on track much more quickly. For more information on intensive EMDR we have another website dedicated to this which you can check out at: www.hannahsproject.co.uk
